A number of the petroglyph images recorded by George Creed do not fall into defined
categories. Creed grouped these images into similar types. Some clearly represent
identifiable scenes while others are writen inscriptions.
Mi'kmaw hieroglyph representing Jesus Christ
Mi'kmaw people carved names and words into the rock using three different writing
systems. Hieroglyphs, where an image represents a whole phrase, are common on the rocks at Kejimkujik. Another set of inscriptions
was done in a writing system invented by the Reverend Silas Rand, as a phonetic way of
spelling both English and Mi'kmaq. Most of the inscriptions, however, are written in
English, using the Roman alphabet.
A few of the drawings shown in this section are palimpsests (overlays) where great
concentrations of many different images are carved one above another. These probably represent
the drawings of many people over time.
