The Wabanaki people, also known as the People of the dawn, are the easternmost tribes of Turtle Island, also referred to as Northeastern woodland tribes. Their culture and language have been in existence for over 10,000 years. Mi'kmaq, Wolastoqewik, Penobscot, Passamaquoddy and Abenaki are the member tribes: Tribes that have endured the most prolonged and earliest contact with the new man on this continent.
