#49 - Hiawatha - Legend

The Ya-Native Podcast

The story of Hiawatha on Ya-Native.com describes his role in the formation of the Iroquois Confederacy. Hiawatha, a leader among the Onondaga, suffered great personal loss and found guidance in the Peacemaker, Deganawida. Together, they traveled to various Iroquois nations, spreading the message of unity, peace, and democracy. Hiawatha's efforts led to the creation of the Great Law of Peace, which united the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca nations into a powerful alliance known as the Haudenosaunee, or the Iroquois Confederacy.
