| - John L. Steckley és un erudit canadenc especialitzat en estudis amerindis i en llengües ameríndies. Steckley té un doctorat en educació de la Universitat de Toronto. Ha estat professor al a , des de 1983. Steckley és registrat com el darrer parlant conegut de la llengua wyandot (o huron), que ha estudiat durant uns trenta anys. També està interessat com deriven els topònims de les llengües indígenes, i té com a objectiu corregir els conceptes erronis comuns sobre les seves derivacions originals. Steckley ha esdevingut una figura respectada profundament entre els wyandot. En la seva adopció per la tribu Wyandot el 1999, va ser nomenat Tehaondechoren ("el que divideix el país en dos"). També va rebre el nom "Hechon" de descendents dels hurons a , mentre els ensenyava llur pròpia llengua històrica. Aquest era un nom que anteriorment havien donat a Jean de Brébeuf (1593–1649), un dels màrtirs del Canadà, per llurs seguidors hurons i Wyandots. El 2007 el seu Huron-English dictionary va ser el primer llibre d'aquesta mena publicat durant més de 250 anys. En 2007 la va rebre una subvenció federal d'1 milió de dòlarsper al desenvolupament dels seus materials didàctics en llengua huron en col·laboració amb Steckley. En 2011 es va escriure l'article, Why do the Oji-cree come together here? per Sean MacNeil, graduat de Humber College i estudiant de John Steckley, citant John Steckley com a inspiració per al seu article. Més tard, un article al Humber EtCetera feia una referència que l'estudiant podria ser el proper protégé de John Steckley. (ca)
- John L. Steckley (born March 13, 1949) is a Canadian scholar specializing in Native American studies and the indigenous languages of the Americas. Steckley has a PhD in Education from the University of Toronto. He taught at Humber College in Toronto, Ontario, from 1983 until his retirement in June 2015. Steckley is one of the last known speakers of the Wyandot language, which he has studied for over thirty years. Today he works closely with the Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma to aid in language revitalization alongside other Wyandot linguists such as Richard Zane Smith from the unrecognized Wyandot Nation of Kansas and Dr. Craig Kopris. He is also interested in place names as derived from indigenous languages, and aims to correct common misconceptions regarding their original derivations. Steckley has become a deeply respected figure amongst the Wyandot. On his adoption into the Wyandot tribe in 1999, he was named Tehaondechoren ("he who splits the country in two"). He was also given the name "Hechon" by descendants of the Huron in Loretteville, Quebec City, while teaching them their own historical language. This was a name that had previously been given to Jean de Brébeuf (1593–1649), one of the North American Martyrs, by his Huron and Wyandot followers. His 2007, Huron-English Dictionary was the first book of its type for over 250 years to be published. In 2007, Laval University received a federal grant of $1 million for development of its Huron-language teaching materials in collaboration with Steckley. Steckley has written widely on a variety of sociological and anthropological topics, including a recent book on gibbons. (en)
