Otadonanis

The Otadaonanis flows north through the low country west of James Bay, joining the Kapiskau shortly before the latter reaches the sea. Its name comes from Swampy Cree. The river lies within the country used by the Attawapiskat Cree, whose territory extended along this coast and inland among the rivers and wetlands. Hunting, fishing and seasonal journeys connected the shores of the bay with the forested country beyond.
