Abenaki

The Abenaki could also be brave warriors, but like most hunter-gatherers they probably did not go looking for trouble.

The manuscript was written in 1750 by Father Joseph Aubery, a Jesuit priest from France assigned to the Saint-François-de-Sales Roman Catholic mission from 1709 until he died in 1756. It's one of the few and earliest documents available in Aln8ba8dwaw8gan, the Abenaki language.

I am to walk left, westward on the Abenaki trail which I will know by the sapling bent into the earth with one sprout growing skyward.
