Algonkin/Anishnabe and Mi'kmaq are both classified as Algonquian languages; they are therefore distantly related and a linguist can identify links between them (even if these may not be obvious to another observer).
Some people believe that the name "Algonkin" for the Anishnabe tribe comes from the Mi'kmaq term algoomeaking - "at the place of spearing fish".

the mikmaq aka (L'nu) taught history throught stories and legends. Example: The mikmaq land was destroyed, the forests burnt the river dryed, no animals left but a few, so Bear came and taught the mikmaq to respect the land and use everybit of its catch, and not to waste.
