Coyote markers are balancing rock monuments and pillars that mark territorial boundaries. Each marker has its own Coyote legend and lesson attached to it. In this episode of Red Earth Uncovered, Shayla travels to Kamloops, BC to discover some of the coyote legends. Coyotes are often the focus of Indigenous legends. He is known to be a shape-shifter and a helper, being half-human and half animal, specifically to prepare the world for the “people to come.” To the local Shuswap people, the balancing rock is considered a boundary marker for Shuswap territory and is known as "Coyote Rock". The "Old One", who was the main creator, sent down transformers who were his helpers and had the ability to alter their physical forms. They would complete the "Old One's" work on the earth by improving the land and giving shape to it in the forms of mountains, valleys, and lakes.
