Re: Consonant Harmony?

I was sitting here reading an article about word classes in
Winnebago when all of a sudden, more or less out of nowhere, I
began to wonder if there were conlangs with consonant harmony.
(I suppose some of the examples reminded me of some examples
of palatal harmony I'd studied last year.) None of my languages
have it, and I've never heard of any. How about it? Are
there any?
