Many people are confused about the meanings of the words "Algonquin" and "Algonquian".
The Algonquin tribe, also called Algonkin, Anishinaabe or Omàmiwininiwak, live today where they have always lived - along the Ottawa river valley between Quebec and Ontario in Canada.
Many other tribes in the USA and Canada speak languages which are classed as Algonquian (meaning "like Algonquin"). They lived across most of North America; the Blackfoot, Arapaho and Cheyenne of the Great Plains all spoke Algonquian languages, so did the Powhatan, Secotan and Pamunkey of Virginia, the Delawares, the Shawnees, the Ojibwe/Chippewa, the Cree, The Montagnais, Abenaki, Penobscot and Mi'kmaq, the Menomini, Sauk and Fox and very many other tribes.
So it is not possible to say that the Algonquian people lived in any one place - they were many tribes living across many thousands of square miles of territory.
