Inuit Inukshuk on the shore of Hudson Bay, in Churchill, Canada

As one travels across the Canadian Arctic, one will see piles of rock slabs and stone built to resemble the shape of a person with arms stretching out. These stone structures put up by Inuit are known as Inukshuk (pronounced 'in-ook-shook'). In the Inuit language Inuktitut, Inukshuk means "likeness of a person" or "in the image of man".
