Bark canoes were traditionally built by many eastern woodlands people. The Iroquois used elm bark since this was widely available in their area, but the Ojibwe, Algonquin, Mi'kmaq, Cree, Malecite and Naskapi generally used birch bark.

Each tribe built the prow and stern of their canoes in a distinctive shape, so it is possible to recognise the tribe by the shape of the ends of their canoes.
