While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!

 

 

 

Abnaki Tribal Divisions

Tribal divisions, The tribes included in the confederacy as noted by Maurault have already been given. In a letter sent by the Abnaki in 1721 to the governor of New England their divisions are given as follows:

Narantsouuk (Norridgewock) Pentugouet (Penobscot) Narakamigou (Rocameca)
Anmissoukanti (Amaseconti) Muanbissek Pegouakki (Pequawket, N. H.)
Medoktek (Medoctec) Kwupahag Pesmokanti (Passamaquoddy)
Arsikantegou (Arosaguntacook) Ouanwinak (Wewenoc, south edge of N. H.)

The following is a full list of Abnaki tribes:

Accominta Amaseconti Arosaguntacook
Etchimin Malecite Missiassik
Norridgewock (the Abnaki in the most limited sense) Passamaquoddy
Penobscot Pequawket Rocameca

     The bands residing oil St Croix and St Johns Rivers.  Spoke a different dialect front those to the southward, and were known collectively as Etchimin. They are now known as Passamaquoddy and Malecite. Although really a part of the Abnaki, they were frequently classed as a distinct body, while on the other hand the Pennacook tribes, although distinct front the Abnaki, were often classed with them on account of their connection daring the Indian wars and after their removal to Canada.
     According to Morgan they had fourteen gentes:
