Algonquin Indians lived in structures called wigwams. Wigwams are small, dome roofed houses, usually 8-10 feet tall. They are made of wooden frames which are covered with woven mats and sheets of birchbark.

They lived in a Wigwam. They built it by using branch or bark. If they don't use branch or bark they would build branch huts instead.

What are some Algonquin characteristics?

The Algonkin or Algonquin tribe still live today in many small independent bands on reservations in Ontario and Quebec in Canada. Historically they had no "tribal symbol" - such things were almost unknown for most native groups throughout the entire Americas.In modern times some Algonquin bands have adopted various symbols for use on Internet sites, flags and so on. The Mattawa/North Bay Algonquin use the image of a netted hoop (wawiieiak takobidjigan in Algonquin), often confused by many people for a "dream catcher" but unconnected with that concept. The netted hoop was a symbol of the universe, the unending order of things and was often attached to cradleboards or the hair of warriors.The Algonquins of Golden Lake use the image of a bear in silhouette (makwa in Algonquin), while the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan have a green turtle (mikinak in Algonquin).
