The Mi'kmaq collection covers a period from about 1500 to the late twentieth century, primarily in the Maritime Provinces of eastern Canada. The main source of information on this group will be found in Wallis and Wallis, supplemented by Le Clercq, and Denys, for historical depth. In addition to the above, a brief culture summary of the Mi'kmaq people is presented in Bock. Additional ethnographic topics described in this collection are as follows: the hunting territory system in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland; Shamanism; culture loss and culture change for the period of 1912-1950; the contemporary Mi'kmaq of the Restigouche Reserve (up to 1961); and social revitalization and change in regard to the religious festival of St. Anne
