Kipawa First Nation

"Kipawa" is the name of one of the Algonquin First Nations of Quebec. This is the name of a river which runs through there territory, a slight corruption of the Algonquin name Kebaowek (which means "river narrows.") The Kipawa First Nation is also commonly known as the Eagle Village band, which is an English place name from their territory. The Kipawa Algonquins speak a Northern Algonquin dialect.
