	Wendake, Quebec - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Wendake is the current name for the Huron-Wendat reserve, an enclave within Quebec City, Quebec.
		The Huron-Wendat of Wendake (formerly called the Hurons of Lorette) originally came from the Georgian Bay region.
		Wendake was also the name given by Hurons to this original Ontario homeland south of Georgian Bay in Simcoe County and Grey County, a region also informally known as "Huronia" or the Georgian Triangle.

	Chapter 6 - The Destruction of Wendake (Huronia)
		Efforts were made to establish a permanent settlement but the lack of supplies and exhausting effort of clearing fields and beginning afresh combined with the inadequate resources of the island doomed these efforts.
		On the other hand, Lorette has been renamed "Wendake" to commemorate the origins of the inhabitants and, like native people everywhere, they are taking a renewed pride in their heritage.
		The Wyandot (Wyandotte) of Oklahoma and Kansas, the Anderdon Band and the Wendat of the new Wendake represent a continuation of distinct Wendat cultures despite massive transformation.

		The first missionary to arrive in Wendake was Joseph Le Caron who spent the winter of 1615 - 1616 in the Attignawantan village of Carhagouha.
		Demographic information is imprecise but it appears that the population of Wendake was reduced by one half to two thirds between 1615 and 1641.
		As Wendake crumbled, many Wendat looked to the Jesuits for help but the benefits the Jesuits offered were waiting in heaven.

		Their eight (later nine) villages were nestled along the base of the Niagara Escarpment, an ancient ridge that runs from Niagara Falls, around the western end of Lake Ontario to modern day Collingwood, continuing on to the Bruce Peninsula, across the straits to Manitoulin Island and into the state of Michigan.
		The area apparently enjoyed a slightly milder climate from that of Wendake as the Tionontatehronnon were able to grow Tobacco.
		The final Iroquois assaults on Wendake in 1649 brought a flood of refugees to the villages of the Tionontatehronnon.
