IMAGE INFORMATION


At the request of the Micmac Association for Cultural Studies, during the course of 1980-1981, the Nova Scotia Museum, Learning Resources & Technology, and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, Halifax, produced a television series on Mi'kmaq life circa 1400 A.D. The all-Mi'kmaq cast, speaking Mi'kmaq, brought to life a theoretical day in spring, summer, fall and winter, plus a dramatization of a wedding. These shots were taken during the taping of the Winter Episode, in February 1981, done on the grounds of "Mount Uniacke," a branch of the Nova Scotia Museum.
