Mi’kmaq is the language of the indigenous nation of the same name, whose settlement area is situated in Atlantic Canada. In addition to the spoken language, they used pictographs out of which the Mi’kmaq hieroglyphic writing system was developed. These pictorial symbols, mostly drawn on birch bark, were used for generations for passing on knowledge. They became the basis for religious texts, and were used as memory aids.
