Who were the Ojibwa?
The Ojibwa and Chippewa are not only the same tribe;
they are the same word, pronounced a little differently. Some of the ways
their name has appeared is Ojibweg, Ojibwey, Otchipwe, and Chippeway. The
Woodland Ojibawa people use none of these spellings. The Ojibwa
called themselves "original men". They lived in the northern
Great Lakes Region. They were skilled hunters and trappers. They rarely
used horses or hunted buffalo. They liked their forest home.
Why did the Ojibwa hide pebbles in moccasins? What is
a Charcoal Sad Face? How do you play Butterfly Hide and Seek? What is
a Dream Catcher? Who was the Everything Maker?
