The Amikwa (

Manitoulin, along the shores between Missisagi and French Rivers, and along Spanish River. In September 1753, Bacqueville de la Potherie claimed that they inhabited the shores of Lake Nipissing.[4] They were a large, powerful group allied with the Nipissings and related to the Outchougai, Mandua, and Atchiligouan peoples.[5] The Amikwa were nearly wiped out by disease and wars with the Iroquois and the last of the tribe appear to have merged with the Nipissings or the Ojibwe.[5]
