	Stadacona
		Jacques CARTIER was led to the village on his second voyage in 1535 and wintered at a safe distance, across the St-Charles River.

		There is some evidence that refugees from Stadacona and Hochelaga were adopted by the HURON.

	Québec en Español - Québec, Tadoussac, Mont-Tremblant, Gaspé, Les Laurentides
		El asentamiento indígena donde hoy se encuentra la capital de la provincia de Québec se llamaba Stradacona ó Stadacona y en el habitaban varios cientos de indígenas en el Siglo XVI cuando Jacques Cartier, el primer explorador Francés que vino a estas tierras con el apoyo de la corona francesa.
		Cartier confundió la palabra Canada, que quiere decir pueblo, con la palabra Stadacona, ya que un par de indígenas se refirieron a Stadacona como su pueblo, su Canadá.
		No fue sino unos 70 años después, en 1608, que Samuel de Champlain, otro explorador francés, fundó y nombró la ciudad de Québec en lo que había sido Stadacona.

		Lawrence, he sailed up-river for the first time, and reached the Iroquoian village of Stadacona (located nearby the site of present-day Quebec City), where Chief Donnacona was reunited with his two sons.
		Anchoring at Stadacona on August 23, Cartier again met the Iroquoians, but found their "show of joy" and their numbers worrisome, and decided not to build his settlement there.
		Thereafter the name Canada was used to designate the small French colony on these shores, and the French colonists were called Canadiens, until the mid-nineteenth century when the name started to be applied to the loyalist colonies on the Great Lakes and later to all of British North America.

		When Cartier erected a cross there 24 July 1534, their chief, Donnacona, felt that he had been wronged; he harangued the French; his canoe was seized and he was forced to go aboard the ship along with those who were accompanying him.
		He announced to Agona, who was still chief of Stadacona, that Donnacona had died in France, that the others were living there as great lords, and that they were married and had not wished to come back: all of which naturally did not cause Chief Agona any grief.
		A veritable war finally broke out between the Indians of Stadacona and the colonists at Charlesbourg-Royal (at Cap-Rouge, near Quebec); the Indians were to boast of killing more than 35 of Cartier’s men.

		Twenty-five canoes from Stadacona afterwards visited them; and later Donnaconna brought on board "10 or 12 other of the greatest chiefs" with more than 500 persons, men, women and children, some doubtless from the neighbouring settlements.
		It may perhaps be conjectured that Stadacona, Tailla and Tekenouday, being on heights, were the oldest strongholds in their region.
		But this rate is higher than their state of "Middle-Barbarism" is likely to have permitted and a hundred and fifty years would seem to be as fast as they could be expected to attain the population they possessed in Cartier's time.
