Odawa

The Odawa (also Ottawa or Odaawaa ), said to mean "traders," are a Native American tribe and First Nations band. They are one of the Anishinaabeg, related to but distinct from the Ojibwe and Potawatomi people. Their original homelands are located on Manitoulin Island, near the northern shores of Lake Huron, on the Bruce Peninsula in the present-day province of Ontario, Canada and in the state of Michigan, United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First Nations Culture Areas Index )〕 There are approximately 15,000 Odawa living in Ontario, Michigan and Oklahoma.
The Odawa language is considered a divergent dialect of the Ojibwe, characterized by frequent syncope. The Odawa language, like the Ojibwe language, is part of the Algonquian language family. They also have smaller tribal groups or “bands” commonly called “Tribe” in the United States and “First Nation” in Canada. The Odawa people formerly lived along the Ottawa River but now live especially on Manitoulin Island.〔''Canadian Oxford Dictionary''〕
==Tribe name==
''Odaawaa'' (syncoped as ''Daawaa'', supposedly from the Anishinaabe word ''adaawe'', meaning “to trade,” or “to buy and sell”) is a term common to the Cree, Algonquin, Nipissing, Montagnais, Odawa, and Ojibwe. The Potawatomi spelling of ''Odawa'' and the English derivative "Ottawa" are also common. The Anishinaabe word for "Those men who trade, or buy and sell" is ''Wadaawewinini(wag)'', which was recorded by Fr. Frederic Baraga in his ''A Dictionary of the Otchipwe Language'' as "Watawawininiwok," but he recorded it as meaning "men of the bulrushes", from the many bulrushes in the Ottawa River.〔Baraga, Frederick. (1878). ''A Dictionary of the Otchipwe Language'', I, 300.〕 This recorded meaning is associated with the ''Matàwackariniwak,'' a historical band of Algonquins living about the Ottawa River. Their neighbors applied the "Trader" name to the Ottawa because in early traditional times, and also during the early European contact period, they were noted as intertribal traders and barterers.〔Beck, David (2002). ''Siege and Survival: History of the Menominee Indians, 1634–1856'', p. 27. University of Nebraska Press. ISBN 0-8032-1330-1.〕 They dealt "chiefly in cornmeal, sunflower oil, furs and skins, rugs and mats, tobacco, and medicinal roots and herbs."〔Burton, Clarence M. (ed.) (1922). ''The City of Detroit, Michigan, 1701-1922'', p. 49. The S. J. Clarke Publishing Company.〕〔Wurm, Stephen A., et al. (eds.) (1996). ''Atlas of Languages of Intercultural Communication in the Pacific, Asia, and the Americas'', p. 1118. Walter de Gruyter & Co. ISBN 3-11-013417-9.〕
Like the Ojibwe, the Odawa usually refer to themselves as ''Nishnaabe'' (''Anishinaabe'', plural: ''Nishnaabeg'' / ''Anishinaabeg''), meaning "original people."
The name in its English transcription is the source of the place names of Ottawa, Ontario, and the Ottawa River. The Odawa's home territory at the time of early European contact, but not their trading zone, was well to the west of the city and river named after them. The tribe is source of the name for Tawas City, Michigan, and Tawas Point, which reflect the syncope-form of their name. The county seat of Putnam County, Ohio is named Ottawa, and is located at the site of the last Ottawa reservation in Ohio.
