This is a collection of words, photos and video clips about “The Wyandotte/ Wyandot People“ & Wendat-Huron Confederacy..., with a brief overlook of some of their culture, traditions & history. -------------------------------------------------- The Wyandot People, or Wendat People, also called the Wendat-Huron Nation and Huron People, are an Iroquoian-speaking peoples of North America who emerged as a tribe, around the north shore of Lake Ontario. They traditionally spoke the Wyandot language, a Northern Iroquoian language and were believed to number over 30,000 at the time of European encounter, in the second decade of the 17th century. By the 15th century, the pre-contact Wyandot had settled in the large area,from the north shores of most of present-day Lake Ontario northwards, up to Georgian Bay. From this homeland, they encountered the French explorer Samuel de Champlain, in 1615. The historical Wyandot emerged in the late 17th century, from the remnants of two earlier groups: The Wyandot/Wendat (Huron) Confederacy and the Tionontati People (Petun in French), also known as the “Tabacco/Tobacco People“ for their chief commodity crop.
