Abstract

In this article the author discusses aspects of the powwow through critical assessment of the impact of local tradition and intertribal tradition, and the processes of change that are essential to understanding the emergence of the powwow as a powerful site of Native identities. There are two frames of reference for the discussion: the traditional powwow in Miawpukek, Newfoundland, and the contest powwow in Elsipogtog, New Brunswick.
