PeckmoreEmission: CommemorativePrinting Method: RecessColors: BlackPerforation: 11 Great Head, Acadia National Park (1916), Maine Acadia National Park On July 8, 1916, President Woodrow Wilson created Sieur de Monts National Monument, which later became Acadia National Park. The park is located on Maine’s Mount Desert Island, Isle Au Haut, on the Schoodic Peninsula. The Wabanaki people were some of the first known residents of present-day Acadia, arriving as much as 5,000 years ago. They called Mount Desert Island Pemetic, which means “range of mountains” or “the sloping land.” With entire families in each canoe, they traveled there seasonally to hunt, fish, and collect the bountiful natural harvest. Some of the earliest accounts of outsiders in the Wabanaki territory were in the 1500s when Europeans reportedly began trading with them. In 1604, French explorer Samuel de Champlain ran aground at Mount Desert Island and gave the mountain its current name. The Wabanaki kindly welcomed French Jesuits in 1613, who established the first French mission in America near the entrance of Somes Sound. The French were in the process of building a fort and baptizing natives when an English ship, led by Captain Samuel Argall, arrived and destroyed the mission. With the French in control of the area north of the island and British in the south, there was little European activity on the island for about 150 years.
