Chief Donnacona (died c. 1539 in France) was the chief of Stadacona, a St. Lawrence Iroquoian village located at the present site of Quebec City, Canada. In 1534 when French explorer Jacques Cartier first arrived at Gaspé Bay (called by them Honguedo), he seized two natives, Domagaya and Taignoagny, and took them to France. They returned to Canada with Cartier the following year, showed him the entrance to the St. Lawrence River, and piloted him up the river to Donnacona's capital, Stadacona, where this time, the French wintered. Cartier describes his title as Agohanna, an Iroquoian word for chief.
