Description

On page 240 of the volume, there is an article by Frank G. Speck titled "River Desert Indians of Quebec." It describes the wikwemotak (bark containers) and clothing made by the Kitiganzibiwininiwag, highlighting the inter-influences of local and Haudenosaunee traditions.

According to Speck, the cohabitation of the Kitiganzibiwininiwag and the Haudenosaunee at Lake of the Two Mountains (Oka), from 1721 until the early 19th century, allowed for numerous cultural exchanges. The author notes that Haudenosaunee clothing and ornaments were still owned by members of the community at the moment of his visit.
