In the Kejimkujik area there are signs of evidence that the Archaic  people used the mersey river, A little ways south of Kejimkujik as much as 6000 years ago. They traveled from place to place keeping track of the seasons for food, Plants, animals, and other resources. Over time they developed their culture like traditions, dances and the language that is now todays mik'maq. In fact, the name Kejimkujik is based off a Mik

'maq word, that references the efforts put into traveling across the great kejimkujik lake. The mik'maq then started to wipe out, but many years later people were finding dozens of petroglyph art about events, and the Kejimkujik lakes. Afterwards they decided to make  it  a national park  and was established  in 1974 and designated  in 1995. That is now our Kejimkujik historic site, and now we still remember and respect the people who where once there.
