Significance of battle of Quebec?
Well it was a turning point for the british. It cut off one of the main trade/travel routs of the French; it was an ambush of the French commander Marquis de Montcalm (mark-KEE deh mont-KAHM). When the surprised French commander learned what the british had done, he ordered an immediate attack. He hoped to defeat the British before they could become entrenched. But the British routed the French with their indian allies. Both Wolfe and Montcalm were mortally wounded in the battle. With their commander dead and their troops disorganized, the French surrendered Quebec.

Where did the Navajo clan Kinyaa'anii originate?
Kin yaa'áaánii means Towering House clan. They are one of the four original clans.They are said to have been created by Changing Woman first. Changing Woman rubbed the skin from her breast. She combined that with the Niłch'i Dine'é (The Air People) and formed people who became the Kinyaa'ą́ąnii . She sent them east from where she was in the west.Kinyaa'ą́ąnii is a name of a Pueblo ruin in the Crownpoint area of New Mexico so perhaps there is some relationship to the Pueblo poepl who lived there. I have attached a map.They are related to:Dziłt'aadí ----- Near the Mountain Clan'Azee'tsoh dine'e--- The Big Medicine People ClanTazhii dine'e---The Turkey People ClanBit'ahnii----His sheaves…Leaf clan…Under his cover clan, Folded arms peopleHalgai Dine'e ---People of the Valley clan (Adopted Clan)Shash dine'e --The Bear People Clan (Adopted clan)Naadaa' dine'e -----The corn people clan ( adopted)One story is:To the Kin Yaa'áanii, Changing Woman gave a cane (gish) made of white shell, which became the Sacred White Shell Gish. Through this gift, people of the Kin Yaa'áanii Clan became respected leaders, guides, & teachers. Changing woman gave them bear (shash) as their symbol of protection. It is a strong symbol, & the claws & skin are seen in sand paintings for the Mountain & Bear Chants. The bear is called dzil yaah naagháhí, meaning "one that walks on the mountains." Some clans tell the story that the keeper of the White Shell gish became frustrated when he dug for water & found none. He threw the gish against a canyon wall. When the people saw him standing there, they mistook the canyon wall for a house. This is how the clan became known as the Towering House Clan.Another story:In the days before horses, our ancestors came to settle with the Anaasazi who lived at Towering House. There, the Anaasazi had turkeys. A turkey shook its feathers and all types of corn came out. Our people took the corn, and the Towering House people were the first of our clans to plant it. Later, there was a dispute with the Anaasazi living there, and our clan moved on As the clans were about to leave, Changing Woman gave them five animals to protect them, the Great Snake, Fearless Bear, Gentle Deer, Upright Porcupine, and the Mighty Puma, and gave the clan a wand of white shell . Hopi members of the Asngyam clan (Tansy Mustard) could have been incorporated into this clan after the late-17th century. Towering House is also part of the Hailway origin story.
