The "Huron" tribe is neither French nor Dutch but a Canadian first nations people which lived along the St. Lawrence River. They called themselves the Wyandot, Wyandotte, or Wendat. The first French explorers called them the Huron for their characteristic hairstyle. In French this means means "having hair standing in bristles on the head," it comes from the Old french hure "head of a wild boar" The Hurons were allies of the French.
