Wacinton ('to have understanding'), a carving that the City of Paducah says "honors the Chickasaw Indians who lived and hunted in this area until the Jackson Purchase in 1818", was hand-chiseled by sculptor Peter 'Wolf' Toth from a 56,000-pound red oak and dedicated May 26, 1985 in Noble Park, Paducah. It is one of Toth's Trail of the Whispering Giants carvings.
