    The Two Row Wampum : historic fiction, modern reality
    (2004) Muller, Kathryn V.; Turgeon, Laurier; Delâge, Denys
    Contemporary Iroquois hail the Two Row Wampum as the grandfather of all treaties between Amerindians and Europeans, asserting the everlasting autonomy of each nation regarding their own beliefs, traditions and laws. However, early colonial written sources do not refer to any such agreement resembling the Two Row, despite their descriptive detail of Iroquois-European political proceedings. This thesis examines the contradiction between Iroquois oral tradition and European written documentation, illustrating how the Two Row appears to be a nineteenth century invention. Despite dubious historical origins, the Two Row nevertheless provides the guiding principles of peace and autonomy innately assumed by the Iroquois at contact. Today, as a mythic discourse of heroic proportions, the Two Row asserts the nationhood of the Iroquois who, threatened with extinction, struggle to maintain their cultural and political autonomy.
