oh...I knew that ;) Well, I have several sources and both spellings are used. One spells it Algonquin and Athapaskan...and was published in both Canada and the United States. Copyright date is 1992. AMERICA IN 1492 THE WORLD OF THE INDIAN PEOPLES BEFORE THE ARRIVAL OF COLUMBUS was edited by Alvin M Josephy Jr...much of the research was performed at Newberry Library in Chicago at the Center for the History of the American Indian. The other book is in its third edition and was written by Merwyn Garbarino and Robert Sasso is titled NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE. It used the spelling Algonkian and Athabaskans. I started to use the Algonquin spelling and the Athabaskan spelling, but I've no idea where the difference is split. American history texts from 1990 used Algonquin, but make no mention of the Athabaskans. I have another text that I use for the Lakota and Dakota tribes, but there is no mention of the Athabaskan or Algonquin in it. I noticed that some texts do the same thing with Hammerabi. If you go back and use texts from the 1940's or earlier it is spelled Hammerapi. I've never been able to find out when or why the spelling was altered.
