Île aux Basques
Île aux Basques is an island located in the Saint Lawrence River in Quebec, Canada. The island is historically significant for its association with Basque whalers and fishermen who used it as a seasonal base in the 16th and 17th centuries AD. Archaeological excavations on Île aux Basques have uncovered numerous artifacts, including tools, pottery, and remnants of whaling activities, providing valuable insights into the early European presence and interactions with Indigenous peoples in the region.
