Pontiac, or Obwandiyag, (c. 1720 – 20 April 1769) was an Ottawa war chief best known for his role in Pontiac's Rebellion.

After the terms of the Treaty of Easton in 1758 were broken by the British, a loose confederation of indigenous native American tribes launched Pontiac's Rebellion in 1763. During the rebellion, Pontiac became the most prominent of the native leaders, and he used a toothed war club in battle.

Sometime around 1774, the Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton recovered Pontiac's club, following the war chief's death five years prior.
