The Petroforms are stones or boulders shaped into patterns by Indigenous ancestors.

The Bannock Point Petroforms are figures laid out on bedrock in the forms of turtles, snakes and humans, and abstract patterns.

While the petroform site has been named the Bannock Point Petroforms, many still acknowledge the site as its original name in Anishinaabemowin (the Ojibwe language) as Manidoo-Abi, translated to English as “Where the Spirit Sits.”
