Wi’kwas bima’tig, Celastrus scandens, literally “birch vine,” from its 
frequent occurrence on the birch. 
Manito’ bima’tig, Ampelopsis quinquefolia, “ spirit vine,” from medic- 
inal properties of its roots. 
Ki’shig, Thuja occidentalis. 
Mi’nan, Vaccinium berries. This word appears to be used also for 
berry in general. As near as I could learn, it is the plural form of the 
word, the singular being wim’in.

advena.
