The Anishinabeg Indians3 groups:

Ojibwa(or Chippewa) – “older brother”Ottawa – “middle brother”Potawatomi – “younger brother”

Known as the Three Fires Confederacy (family)

This is Chief Pontiac, the most famous Ottawa chief. Did you know that Pontiac, Michigan, and

Pontiac cars are named after him? Hmmm … what’s in his hand?

Moodle ReflectionLook at a relief map from NASA, based

on photos taken from space!Relief maps show high and low areas of

landBlue areas = waterGreen areas = low areas of landYellow areas = higher land areas So … the more yellow the area, the higher

up the land is (like mountains)The greener the area, the lower it is.

Moodle ReflectionCompare the map on the next

slide with the map in your book on page 51.

Explain where the Anishinabeg Indians came from and why they settled in different areas of Michigan.

Think about what they needed from their environment to survive.

How did geography affect their path?
