This
map shows the area of Pauwetiig as viewed facing South. You
will notice when you go outdoors to check the sky, you do
not
naturally look to the North. It is a European convention to draw maps
with the North at the "top". This
map is drawn with the natural arc of the day's Sun strectching from
east to west along the Southern Sky. The modern maps of the Sault Ste.
Marie Area are contaminated in many ways by the European Vision of the
world. This map image shows you the waterways that were the travelways
of the First People. Long ago the water was free to flow along its
natural course. In those times Anishnabe were also free to live as the
Creator had intended.
