Mi'kmac Splint Basket Varieties shown at Museum of Natural History, Halifax, NS, Canada

While traveling in the maritime provinces of Canada, we encountered many historical and modern signs of the Micmac or Mi'kmac (we saw it spelled both ways on the signs) peoples, an Algonquin language people native to the area, according to the Canadian Encyclopedia. At the Museum of Natural History, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, we were show some of their modern splint baskets, examples shown in the above photograph.

Here's an example of Micmac music, the Micmac Honor Song video.
