Attikamagen

Attikamagen is a lake in the Labrador interior, surrounded by a chain of waters stretching northwest across the shield country. It lies within the homeland of the Naskapi, whose life before European contact depended heavily on hunting caribou. The lake and its neighbours formed an important caribou hunting area, while fishing supplied another source of food. Far from the Atlantic shore, this landscape of lakes and forest was part of a vast inland territory travelled by Indigenous hunters.
