TREE OF PEACE: THE IROQUOIS LEGEND OF THE EASTERN WHITE PINE When we discuss the history and value of the Eastern White Pine, we typically do so within the framework of American colonialism, repeating tales of ‘The King’s Broad Arrow’ and other events that took place around the time of the Revolutionary War. But of course, the venerable tree and the landscape in which it grows flourished for a long time before any European settlers arrived on the shores of what we now call North America, and it remains important to some Native American tribes all these centuries later. The Iroquois (whose true name is Haudenosaunee Nation) call the Eastern White Pine the ‘Tree of Peace.’ The origins of its legend lie within that of a man they called Dekanawidah, the peace-giver, who helped create the Five Nations Confederacy (Kayanerenh-kowa, or ‘Great Peace’) between the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga and Seneca tribes. Historians believe this confederacy may have formed in the 15th century. As the story goes, Dekanaweidah traveled between each of these warring tribes to spread a message of peace, friendship, and unity, but was not always met with understanding. The Eastern White Pine tree was known to them as “the tree of the Great Long Leaves,” and Dekanaweidah used it as a symbol of his intentions. It was said to have four symbolic roots, the Great White Roots of Peace, which extended north, east, south and west. Dekanaweidah planted an Eastern White Pine on the land of the Onondagas (in the present-day state of New York), and the chiefs of each tribe who agreed to be a part of the peace agreement would meet beneath its branches to talk about preserving The Great Peace. The clusters of five needles on each branch symbolize the Five Nations joined together as one. When the 5 tribes arrived at the very first council meeting it was a great day. And a day heavily laden with symbolism, five arrows were bound together to represent the bonds of brotherhood now felt amongst the five nations; (note that the eagle on the seal of the USA holds a bundle of arrows representing the states). Underneath the Great tree of Peace, the representatives of the five nations ceremonially buried the hatchet, interring their weapons of war deep in the earth as a symbol of peace, making all equal within the league. Hence the phrase, ‘bury the hatchet’. “The Tree of Peace is an important symbol of peace in Iroquois tradition and in the historical record of diplomacy between the Iroquois and Westerners,” says author and American anthropologist AC Parker in his book ‘Certain Iroquois Tree Myths and Symbols’. https://adventuresinhistoryland.com/2...
