Wyandot people

Indigenous people of the Northeastern Woodlands

The Wyandot people (Wyandot: Waⁿdátcode: wya is deprecated , also known as the Wyandotte) are an Indigenous Iroquoian people who emerged in the Great Lakes region in the mid-17th century. The Wyandot developed through a process of ethnogenesis during the Beaver Wars, when refugees from the Etionnontateronnon (Petun), Wenrohronon, and Wendat (Huron) coalesced following their dispersal by the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois). The Petun/Wendat relocated several times until settling at Michilimackinac in 1671.
