For in their tales, the People themselves speak about their world and give us glimpses of how their universe manifests, in all its fascinating otherness. Mi'kmaw stories have many levels: entertainment, instruction, warnings. They might subtly encode maps of the land's important resources, or of the wheeling skies at night. Telling stories, Elders wove humour and stark tragedy, terror and beauty, to teach their listeners how to survive. More importantly, they underlined, over and over again, how their listeners, as humans, must conduct themselves. Their tales resound with the universal themes included in any worldview--Order and Chaos, Courage and Fear, Change, Revenge and Mercy, Death, Rebirth, and Power--yet are powerfully rooted in Mi'kmaw tradition, Mi'kmaw land. Their voices still speak to us, down the centuries.]]></description><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C156628</link><guid

Fibre Textiles From the Hopps Site]]></title><description><![CDATA[Mi'kmaw and Wolastoqiyik women had developed, by the time of the first European contact with their people, a highly complex and diversified cordage and textile manufacture, using a variety of floral and faunal materials. Animal products included rawhide, tendon thread, feathers, moose and caribou hair, porcupine and bird quills, and the skins, furs and hide of everything from moose and caribou, rabbit and weasel, to fish and eels. The use of faunal material in textiles has been researched rather more Wolastoqiyik and Mi'kmaw territory-- indicate that there were a wide range of plants in use: cattails, reeds, rushes, nettles, Indigenous hemp, sweetgrass, spruce root, cedar bark, basswood bark, yellow-birch fibres, and a number of unidentified grasses and shoots of trees and shrubs. A number of these plant usages have been confirmed by their presence, as worked fragments, in at least five archaeological sites across the Maritimes. To date, however, there are only four published reports on the use of plant materials based on analyses of actual objects--either as they occur in sites or for the area generally. All four are incomplete or flawed.]]></description><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C502202</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C502202</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Whitehead, Ruth Holmes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 1987 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/502202195</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>BkCp-1</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Micmac]]></title><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C284110</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C284110</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Whitehead, Ruth Holmes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 1983 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/284110195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>How Their Ancestors Lived Five Hundred Years Ago</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780920852217/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Micmac Quillwork]]></title><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C76456</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C76456</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Whitehead, Ruth Holmes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 1982 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/76456195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Micmac Indian Techniques of Porcupine Quill Decoration, 1600-1950</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780919680227/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Elitekey]]></title><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C74523</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C74523</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Whitehead, Ruth Holmes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 1980 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/74523195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Micmac Material Culture From 1600 A.D. to the Present</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780919680135/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Micmac Ethnology Collection of the Nova Scotia Museum]]></title><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C76873</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C76873</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Whitehead, Ruth Holmes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 1974 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/76873195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Micmac Ethnology Collection of the Nova Scotia Museum]]></title><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C502482</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C502482</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Whitehead, Ruth Holmes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 1974 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/502482195</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nova Scotia and the Great Influenza, 1918-1920]]></title><description><![CDATA["The definitive academic resource on the Great Influenza by celebrated historian behind Black Loyalists, in time for the pandemic\005CU+2019\005Cs centenary.

Extremely high fever, bleeding from eyes, nose, and ears, terrible pain, especially in the head and the joints, delirium\005CU+2014\005Cand then its victims literally drowned in their own fluids. Fifty to 100 million people worldwide died in this global pandemic in the early twentieth century. The Great Influenza first entered Nova Scotia through ports. (Sydney, Cape Breton, received five hundred sick American troops in a single day.) For three years, the province coped with this vicious epidemic as it spread like wildfire. Local economies ceased functioning; fishing fleets, banks, and apple-canning factories reported all staff were suffering from the flu. The heart of this book, however, is its human element. Oral histories, family memoirs, newspaper articles, and provincial death records tell, county by county, stories of those who died. Accompanied by 20 photographs, Nova Scotia and the Great Influenza Pandemic, 1918\005CU+2013\005C1920 chronicles both provincial and personal efforts to cope during this most perilous time."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C228508</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C228508</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/228508195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Remembrance of the Dead and A Sourcebook for the Living</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781771089159/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Shelburne Black Loyalists]]></title><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C502288</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C502288</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/502288195</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>A Short Biography of All Blacks Emigrating to Shelburne County, Nova Scotia After the American Revolution 1783</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780888716323/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Shelburne Black Loyalists]]></title><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C315812</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C315812</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/315812195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Short Biography of All Blacks Emigrating to Shelburne County, Nova Scotia After the American Revolution 1783</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780888716323/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Life of Boston King]]></title><link>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C330434</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C330434</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[King, Boston]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2003 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagewcrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/330434195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781551094519/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
