Amikwa


The tribe’s name is from the amik name for beaver as they believed they were descendants of a giant beaver. The Amikwa were an Algonquian tribe found by the French on the North shore of Lake Huron at various dates up to 1672. Bacqueville de la Potherie (Hist. Am. Sept., 1753) says that they and the Nipissing once inhabited the shores of Lake Nipissing, and that they rendered themselves masters of all the other nations in those quarters until disease made great havoc among them and the Iroquois compelled the remainder of the tribe to betake themselves, some to the French settlements, others to Lake Superior and to Green Bay, Michigan.

I had just gotten out of the doctors office. Noticed that there was a geocache across the street. I had about 5 mins but I still managed to find it.

Colokitten said “there’s probably a geocache round here somewhere” and lo and behold, there was. Thank you!
