Odanak
Odanak is an Abenaki First Nations reserve in the Centre-du-Québec region, Quebec, Canada. The mostly population as of the Canada 2006 Census was 469. The territory is located near the mouth of the Saint-François River at its confluence with the St. Lawrence River. It is partly within the limits of Pierreville and across the river from Saint-François-du-Lac. ''Odanak'' is an Abenaki word meaning "in the village".
==History==
Beginning about 1000 CE, Iroquoian-speaking people settled along the St. Lawrence River, where they practiced agriculture along with hunting and fishing. Archeological surveys have revealed that by 1300, they built fortified villages identifiable as similar to those seen and described by French explorer Jacques Cartier in the mid-16th century, when he visited Hochelaga and Stadacona. By 1600, however, the villages and people were gone. Since the 1950s, historians and anthropologists have used archeological and linguistic evidence to develop a consensus that the people formed a distinct group, which they have called St. Lawrence Iroquoians. They spoke Laurentian and were separate from the powerful Iroquois confederacy of nations that developed in present-day New York.〔(James F. Pendergast. (1998). "The Confusing Identities Attributed to Stadacona and Hochelaga" ), ''Journal of Canadian Studies'', Volume 32, pp. 149-156, accessed 3 Feb 2010〕
Their disappearance by 1600 is believed to be due to attacks and decimation from the Mohawk Nation, which stood to gain the most by getting control of the hunting grounds along the St. Lawrence River and dominating the fur trade route above ''Tadoussac'', which was under Montagnais control. By the time of Samuel de Champlain's arrival, the St. Lawrence River valley was essentially uninhabited and used by the Mohawk only for hunting grounds and as a path for war parties.〔
As French missionaries worked in present-day Quebec and central-western New York with native peoples in the late 17th and early 18th century, they established mission villages for converted natives near the colonial towns of Quebec City and Montreal. The Abenaki who converted to Catholicism were allied with the French. There is evidence that St. Francis was first occupied by the Sokokis as early as 1660 according to tradition, as many as twenty families; the earliest Sokoki baptism recorded in the area was nearby in Trois-Rivières in 1658. Central Maine was formerly inhabited by people of the Androscoggin tribe, also known as Arosaguntacook. The Androscoggins were a tribe in the Abenaki nation. They were driven out of the area in 1690 sometime after King Philip's War (1675-1676). They were relocated at St. Francis, Canada, which was later destroyed and burnt by Rogers' Rangers in 1759. The Abenakis and some St. Francis residents participated in raids, which were sometimes organized by Sebastien Rale and Abanaki chief Gray Lock in Father Rale's War against English colonial settlements on the frontiers of New England in the early 18th century. Other Abenaki tribes suffered several severe defeats in reprisal during Father Rale's War, particularly the capture of Norridgewock in 1724 and the defeat of the Pequawket in 1725, which greatly reduced their numbers. They finally withdrew to Canada, where they were settled at Bécancour and Sillery, and later at St. Francis, along with other refugee tribes from the south.〔Bruce G.
