The Huron Indians, also known as the Wendats, flourished for centuries in what is now Ontario, Canada. They were skilled farmers and traders, generous and polite with friends but fierce and warlike with their enemies. A highly spiritual people, the Hurons paid close attention to dreams, which were thought to bear messages from spirits. Dreams told the Hurons how and when to hold their celebrations, how to cure the sick, and even foretold the future.
