Hathawekela
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hathawekela was the name of the group Chalaiwa/Chalaka (French term 'Chalaqua') in Mason County West Virginia going to Chalahgawtha in Ohio. Chiefs are Black Bob and Longtail. Was the name of one of the five divisions (or bands) of the Shawnee, a Native American people, during the 18th century. The other four divisions were the Chalahgawtha, Mekoche, Kispoko, and Pekowi. (All five division names have been spelled in a great variety of ways.) Together these divisions formed the loose confederacy that was the Shawnee tribe.
