Vincenzo Coronelli’s 1694 map of the Great Lakes drew from the reports of Jesuit Missionaries, marked with forts, Indian villages, and missionary stations. Lake Ontario is referred to as Lake “Frontenac” and Lake Simcoe is marked as “L Toronto.”  The villages of “Toioiagon” (Teiaiagon) and “Canathe-Kiagon” (Ganatsekwyagon) are also marked.
