-As a result of the white settlements into the area east of Lake Huron, many were sent east to support the eastern Chippewas in the wars against the whites and their Indian allies. By the 1660s, the Saulteaux Ojibwa's had forced their way east of Lake Huron. They began to drive the whites and their Indian allies east. They then colonized the region by sending settlers east, south, and north. They are known as the Wabanaki or Abenaki, Shawnee, and Chipewyan. Not Ojibwe, Ottawa, and Potawatomi. However, in the 16th century, an earlier migration of Chippewa's from the Montana region, had already forced their way to this same region. It was not as massive an invasion as the 17th century invasion.&nbsp;
