Maude Kegg (Ojibwa name ''Naawakamigookwe'', meaning "Centered upon the Ground Woman"; 1904–1996) was an Ojibwa writer, folk artist, and cultural interpreter. She was a member of the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe, located in east-central Minnesota. ==Background== She was born as Maude Ellen Mitchell during the ''Manoominike-giizis'' (or "Ricing Moon"), which occurs in August, in 1904 in Crow Wing County, Minnesota, to Charles Mitchell, a member of the non-Removable Mille Lacs Indians of the ''Adik-doodem'', and his wife, Nancy Pine. Due to the death of her mother either in childbirth or soon afterwards, Maude Mitchell was raised by her father and her maternal grandmother, Margaret Pine, (also known in Ojibwe as ''Aakogwan''). Maude chose her own birthdate as August 26 since the exact date of her birth was not known. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maude Kegg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
