| 520 | _a"A Constitutional League of Peace in the Stone Age of America: The League of the Iroquois and Its Constitution" by J. N. B. Hewitt is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century. This publication focuses on the formation of a unique tribal federation, known as the League of the Iroquois, among five tribes in what is now New York State. The book delves into the constitution and principles that governed this league, aiming to establish lasting peace among tribes during an era dominated by violence and primitive warfare. The content of the book explores the efforts of influential figures like Deganawida and Hiawatha in creating a constitution that emphasized peace, justice, and communal bonds. The league was remarkable for its inclusive vision, aiming to forge an alliance that transcended tribal boundaries, promoting a universal peace across various nations. Hewitt outlines the social structure of the Iroquois, including the roles of clan and matron in tribal governance, as well as the significant ceremonies that upheld the community's legitimacy and integrity. Through detailed analysis, the author showcases the foundational ideas that shaped this advanced form of governance in the Iroquois culture and its implications for broader human society.
