Helen Sylliboy :
Pow Wow..... .It's derived from the word powau.....Narragansett word to dream....
"Powwow was an Algonquin term, "pauwau" or "pauau", which referred to a gathering of medicine men and spiritual leaders.
"Pauwauing" referred to a religious ceremony, usually one of curing.
In the 1800's the European explorers observing these religious gatherings and dances mispronounced the word as "powwow".
