INTRODUCTION: OUR NAMES, OUR STORIES, OUR LAND
When you visit a place, do you ever wonder how it got its name? People from every culture all over the world give names to the lakes, rivers, mountains and other places on their lands. These place names are called “toponyms” and they record a culture’s history on the land. “Goose Bay” is a place name, as is “St. John’s,” “Karachi,” “Beijing,” “Winnipeg,” “Paris” and “Pakut-shipu.” Place names help us answer the question: where do we come from? They give us a sense of place, of belonging. Imagine trying to tell people how to drive from Sheshatshiu in Labrador to Montréal without using place names. Place names
