Mascouten

The Mascouten were an Algonquian-speaking people recorded by French missionaries in southern Michigan. Driven west by the Odawa, they lived near the present Wisconsin–Illinois border.

In 1712 they joined the Kickapoo and Meskwaki after devastating conflict with the French and Potawatomi. By 1779 a Mascouten band lived on the Wabash River; survivors were later recorded among the Kickapoo Prairie Band.
