- In the 12th century, the five Iroquois nations were locked in a bloody cycle of revenge. Human relations had broken down to the point of fratricide and cannibalism. Hiawatha was a Mohawk leader who lost his wife and children in the violence. But with the guidance of Dekanawidah, The Great Peacemaker, Hiawatha turned his grief into forgiveness. Hiawatha and The Peacemaker shared their vision of forgiveness until the warring nations found peace in togetherness. Together, they founded the Iroquois Confederacy; a nation that stands strong today.

Hiawatha has the Largest Native Statue in the world located in Ironwood MI.
That statue is what sparked my interest in this video
Thank you! Fascinating history.
Awesome..I wonder if this time was around when the Cherokee split off from the long house people and traveled south to the southeast
Love this, thanks! I love that you briefly touch on what’s going on worldwide at the time. More Native American history, thanks again.
Very hard to separate truth and embellishment, history and legend, but we do know that these were complicated civilizations that tried hard to preserve the past. Their origin stories are in the same vein as the Hindu, Muslim and Christian tales and allegories.
Telling the "historical truth" isn't the same or as important than telling the story and taking it to heart.
The tribes were able to flourish in art, society, connectedness, music, life etc with thier myths.
Them people don’t have nun to do with America bro they not even the original Indians idk why they’re lying
The picture used with this video reflects the Iroquois peoples in the background....
But the front image of a man in the War Bonnet is from the tribes of the Plains.
What I came to comment lol. I’m sure the video was good but at least have a thumbnail with traditional Haudenosaunee garb.
I have a very small percentage of inca heritage and i live in freezing Northern Europe. Im not claiming to be one, i have roots elsewhere too. But it's always interested me how many different family lines from around the world ended up combining just for me to exist.

Wonderful documentary 👍 as a Midwesterner, I often wonder if when collectors find remains of pipe or anything indigenous, should it be given back to the indigenous people who are here today?
If a given group of indigenous people from the area wants it, yes. Wāēwāēnen for the thought
9:33 dude has glasses on. Lol
Basically legends, word handed down brilliant
❤
When reflecting upon this story people really need to hear "all of it" as these layers effect peoples perseptions upon its diffrent charters and its underlying layers... yes it is also important to note the story does change a little bit depending upon which Haudenosaunee nation storyteller refects it ,, The man Attotaro (Tadadaho) in his youth was deeply respected person in his community who was very thoughtful in helping people , some people became jeaolus of him and they hired a person skiled in creating poisons to go after him.. he most definitely was not born into what he became.. th-cam.com/video/iIQfsnppYYw/w-d-xo.html When we historicaly look at examples of how our people have delt with figures like Tadadaho. in reflective comparison to what the peoples of the Haudenosaunee nation did in placing him the position of such a Leader. Questions as to how we historicaly have time and time again failed to core address internal our own conflit issues within the roots of our own sociaty..
The natives were truley more civilize then all the concquring nations
The Inca were like an HOA.😉
Native Americans came from across the Bering strait.
That is not exactly true the inuits probably did but many of the indigenous tribes came from the water across the pacific
Both across the Atlantic and Pacific. The DNA evidence shows both Asian and European decent. Mostly Asian though.
Some signs of Chinese culture in S. America -- or it might not be; Chinese writing. Very possible that a large Chines junk (sailboat) could have been blown off course. Polynesian DNA. Some stone spearheads match ice age stoneheads identical to those found in France -- ocean hunters may have followed the edges of the ice and the animals across the Atlantic.
It's all very confusing -- but one thing we know, humans spread everywhere
As I understand the current DNA studies, there have been 2 waves. The original "first people" crossed the Strait at the end of the ice ages and settled NA, then they got pushed out by the current "first people" who were Asian and arrived from the Pacific. So, the Native Americans today who often become political and want whatever because they were "the First People" pushed out and had their lands stolen by the Europeans, really were not the first. They had simply pushed somebody else out and stolen their lands. Makes an interesting history to be sure.
@@BlueRidgeCritter interesting ideas you’re having. I would like to hear more if you’re willing to share?
Why doesn't this channel do any videos on African American slaves???🤨
Them folks is Japanese not American Indians 😂
Clearly Asians
Rumored history, basically fairy tails
King Alfred of the "burning oat cakes" in England?
Plenty of others. Oral history can be astonishingly accurate, or, if what you might call fairy tales, nevertheless preserve a central truth. The arrival of the Peacemaker pops up from nothing, not a part of the existing culture, so most likely a real person who'd had a stunning revelation.
For another example, Albert Einstein. He was struggling to finish his work on relativity; during a walk in his garden he said the daisies whispered to him "e equals m c squared". Do daisies really whisper? No. But when he took a moment to relax the answer popped up ... and the world changed.

The Indians were described as being close to African black (color wise) these people are not the real ones ! I am American Indian myself why we don’t look alike ? And I’m full blooded . And NO you were not here first , us so called blacks people was here first WE are the original American Indians . Y’all came after !
Some people were darker than others but there were no people who were described as looking like what today we would call “Black”. There were lots of European invaders who wrote things and created art about Native Americans without having ever seen us and transposed ideas from the other people they considered to be savages, Black Africans onto Native Americans. This is not saying either group are actually savage people, just that they were perceived that way by the Europeans.
So.....there was a 500 year warming session and no oil wells fueling internal combustion engines? Huh,who would have thought,the climate fluctuates.
