Exploring the rich cultural tapestry of the Haudenosaunee people, also known as the Iroquois. From the fierce War Chief Atotarho depicted in an engraving, to the mythical Stone Giant or Cannibal, their stories are filled with intrigue. The man and woman of the Land of Natal, South Africa, encountered in an 1818 engraving, reflect their global connections. The Flying Head Put To Flight and The Iroquois Indians of Canada, both from the same era, showcase their resilience and strength. Their traditional Pouch, made of cloth and beads, holds deep significance in their daily life. Captain Cold, or Ut-ha-wah, painted in 1838, is a testament to their leadership. Tac Yec Neen Ho Gar Ton, Emperor of the Six Nations, reigns proudly in an oil on canvas painting from 1710. Each artwork offers a glimpse into the vibrant history and traditions of the Haudenosaunee people.
