Algonquin clock
The Amerindian tribes that made up the Algonquin people relied on the moon to mark time. They named each full moon according to the seasonal activities of the current cycle. Their immense territory stretched from Lake Superior to the Atlantic seaboard, giving rise to a wide variety of names throughout the Algonquin community. The full moons of the deer, hunter and wolf and the full pink moon represent summer, autumn, winter and spring respectively.Automatically translated
