INUKSHUK Monument with Rest Benches
The Inukshuk is an Inuit monument ,a striking stone monument,
Inukshuks are symbols from the North Polar region , especially the Inuit people of northern Canada use them.
The name Inukshuk means "similar to a human being". Each Inukshuk is unique in its shape, as it was carved out of the rocks that were near the respective place.
Inukshuks are used to mark a place for navigation or to mark a place. The arms and feet determined the direction and showed the right way for navigation.

I wish you all that you can navigate the right way in the new week and in the new year.

I've always admired these Inukshuk figurines and didn't understand the "arms" were put in a certain place to denote navigation etc. Thank you for telling us this Aschi. I hope you have a great new year. Are you going travelling again? I look forward to seeing more of your photos of your exploits.
