Tepastenam〔Transliteration from oral Cree, also transliterated as "Tapastanum"; may be translated as: "Shining light".〕 was a respected leader〔The Cree term for such a leader is "kisayman".〕 of the Pimicikamak indigenous people in the 19th century. He was born about 1805.〔Noted as 70 years of age in Wesleyan-Methodist Register of Baptisms Norway House 1840-1889, United Church Archives, Winnipeg, on July 11, 1875; cited in Margaret Anne Lindsay & Jennifer S.H. Brown, ''The History of the Pimicikamak People to the Treaty Five Period'', The Centre for Rupert's Land Studies at The University of Winnipeg (2008), Appx. F.〕 From oral history accounts he may have been a Midewiwin leader or Kiseman. The record of his baptism in 1875 describes him as "A noted conjurer for many years, who long resisted the teachings of Christianity."〔Wesleyan-Methodist Register of Baptisms Norway House 1840-1889, United Church Archives, Winnipeg.〕
