Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Along with Knife River, this river served as the main waterway that connected the St. Croix River with Mille Lacs Lake. Chief Kappamappa, as recorded by Henry Schoolcraft, made his home at Chengwatana at the mouth of this river. Near the outlet of the Pokegama Lake is a small creek called Mission Creek, named after a Presbyterian mission known for bringing the first printing press in Minnesota, which it was used to print literature in the Ojibwe language. During the treaty-making periods, this river was inhabited by the Biitan-akiing-enabijig who were equally Ojibwa as they were Dakota. The Biitan-akiing-enabijig had numerous skirmished among themselves as they defined themselves as either Ojibwa or Dakota, giving a false perspective that the Mdewakanton Dakota Sioux and Ojibwa Nations were at constant war with each other. Eventually, the Biitan-akiing-enabijig who defined themselves as Ojibwa became part of the St. Croix Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, and the Snake River sub-band subsequently became part of the St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Minnesota, one of the four constituent tribes of the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe.
