Oral history helped pass down stories and legends
the mikmaq aka (L'nu) taught history throught stories and legends. Example: The mikmaq land was destroyed, the forests burnt the river dryed, no animals left but a few, so Bear came and taught the mikmaq to respect the land and use everybit of its catch, and not to waste. This might have been the telling of the asteroid that hit north America 13,000 years ago.

The Mi'kmaq and Haudenosaunee had different responses to contact with the French. The Mi'kmaq generally welcomed the French, as the alliance provided them with trade opportunities and military support against rival tribes and colonial powers. In contrast, the Haudenosaunee were more ambivalent and often resisted French influence, particularly due to their existing alliances with the British and competition for control over trade and territory. Overall, while the Mi'kmaq embraced the French, the Haudenosaunee were more cautious and strategic in their interactions.
they now call it mikmakik, but the word mikmaq is influenced by the french, so it could have been L'nukik since the mikmaq called themselves lnu

The mikmaq were once enemies with the Mohawks and waged war with them. They were also enemies with the British.
They got to Canada by a large peice of ice from Europe to P.E.I (Prince Edward Island).
The Mi'kmaq tribe traditionally used various instruments and tools to convey their stories and history, including drums, flutes, and other percussion instruments, which played a vital role in oral storytelling. They also utilized carved wooden figures and wampum belts, which served as mnemonic devices to help remember important narratives and events. Additionally, the visual art of birchbark scrolls sometimes featured illustrations that complemented the spoken word, enriching their storytelling tradition.
The mikmaq people use to have the signification by having there game going for a day long without stopping
