They were also called Cairns by those who lived up north in England, Norway, (and possibly Greenland).

[@danvez5656]

So did the Inuits balance the rocks used for navigation? Wouldn't it be near impossible to do this in the Arctic with the high winds? Don't they fall down and leave the Inuits with no way to navigate back? I'm not disputing that it happened I'm genuinely curious.

Just don't do it in some public nature reserve. These things are unnatural (obviously), obnoxious, selfish and an eyesore. Also is harmful for the ecosystem, drying out the once-covered ground.

[@Ham_991]

These aren’t Inuksuk. This is rock balancing, which is an art form that, as the video states, is common throughout the world. Micheal Grab very likely isn’t Inuit and they aren’t being used for navigation or communication in the Arctic, so even if they were Inuksuk, they wouldn’t be traditional. _Pardon me. It’s just that seeing Indigenous (or FNMI) things being mislabeled is something I have an issue with after everything we have endured. Inuksuk especially. Inuksuk are, much like dream catchers, often sold as souvenirs and trinkets and made by people who don’t know their true meaning and value. Cultural appropriation and such. Call it what it is by the proper name given, don’t forcefully label it with another culture’s title._
