Photographed beside the store in Kitamaat Village, corner of store in frame. The cannon lay beside the store for years. The cannon was obtained during the fur trade era off of a gun ship (schooner). Ron Whyte visited Kitamaat Village to play basketball and photographed it. The cannon was stolen from its spot some years later by someone in a recreational vehicle. In 2023, Haisla artist Sam Shaw stated that he remembers that the cannon was fired by the community when a barge came in.
