Six Nations Unity Strings

 

Six strings of purple wampum united at one end stand for the Six Nations. When this was laid in a circle the council was open. When it was taken up it meant that the council was over.

It is provided thus: A large bunch of wampum strings, in the making of which the Six Nations League Chiefs have equally contributed, shall symbolize the completeness of the Union and certify the pledge of the nations represented by the Chiefs of the League of the Mohawks, the Oneidas, the Onondagas, the Cayugas, the Tuscaroras, and the Senecas, that all are united and formed into one body, or union, called The Union Of The Great Law which they have established.
