Iroquois Indians: Wood
built 627 days ago
The Iroquois Indians played the Sacred Bowl Game during the last day of the "Ceremonial of Midwinter" which marked the end of the year. The wooden bowl was decorated with four clan symbols - the bear, wolf, turtle, and deer. To play the game a player placed the six nuts which were colored on one side inside the bowl and hit the bowl against the ground. If five of the six pits turned up the same color, the player scored and took another turn. The first player to reach 10 points wins the game.(http://www.mce.k12tn.net/indians/reports1/iroquois2.htm)

An injured or ill Iroquois Indian would sometimes ask the False Face Society to drive away the spirit of the illness or injury. The False Face Society wore masks carved from wood. After a new member joined the False Face Society he had to make his own mask.

The Woodland Indians lived in wigwams and longhouses. Wigwams were made of young sticks bent into a half circle. Birch bark was put over it and a thin layer of grass. Longhouses were rectangular homes. Longhouses were ... made out of young sticks. On top of the frame of sticks they would sew together bark.
