  • It Is Estimated That More Than a Dozen of the Iroquoian-Speaking Tribes That Lived Along the St
    It is estimated that more than a dozen of the Iroquoian-speaking tribes that lived along the St. Lawrence River and the Great Lakes region, prior to the arrival of the French in 1534, referred to themselves collectively as Wendat meaning “villagers.” We are one of these tribes. However, if someone is referencing the Wyandotte as being Huron, they should not classify us as such. The name ‘Huron’ originates from the early French explorers because of a hairstyle called the roach. It was a derogatory name derived from their word ‘hure’ meaning rough or ruffian. The roach was worn atop a mohawk or cleanly shaven head. It was made from thick deer or moose hair and often porcupine quills were also inserted into the bristly cap. When worn by many of the Wendat men, it resembled the thick, bristly hair on the back of wild boars that roamed Europe. Many people assume that the name Huron references a single tribe. The Huron were actually a confederacy of five of the Iroquoian- speaking tribes. The French had a special relationship with the Huron Confederacy, because they controlled a trading network that spanned much of the Great Lakes region and well beyond. This yielded the Huron great power and influence which the French desired in their expansion throughout the Great Lakes region. The founder and oldest nation of the Huron Confederacy was the Attignawantan, who according to oral tradition formed the confederacy around 1400 with the Attingueenongnahac. They expanded, adopting three other tribes into the confederacy; they being Arendaronon, Tahontaenrat, and the Ataronchronon were lastly admitted around 1644.
