The Kabir Kouba dance troupe (also spelled Cabir Coubat), which means “the river of a thousand detours” in Wendat, was founded by Marguerite Vincent Tehariolina in the 1950s. At the time, it was the only authentic Huron-Wendat folk troupe in the country. Thanks to the research of its founder, choreographer and director, the troupe brought the nation’s traditional songs and dances to life. The troupe appeared many times on public television. Come and enjoy this rich collection prepared by the Musée Huron-Wendat in Wendake.

These rattles from Mexico are made from a black-painted nutshell filled with small objects, attached to a wooden stick. When shaken, they make a sound that is used to set the rhythm of the dance. They were used by the Kabir Kouba folk group in the 1960s.
