Did You Know?
Wampum are white whelk & purple quahog clam shells. Strung together, they are reminders of past events. Wampum belts may serve as a message or letter of introduction, or treaty agreements can be preserved in wampum. These belts are more sacred & valuable to the Haudenosaunee than paper documents.
