Eagle Tree of Peace<\/strong><\/em> represents the Great Law, and the tree (a white pine) was planted in the centre of the five nations [Mohawk, Oneida, Seneca, Cayuga, and Onondaga], where the chiefs meet. The Tuscarora nation later joined in the 1700s under the wing of the Cayuga nation, becoming the sixth nation.<\/p>\n The eagle is at the top of the tree, able to see any oncoming danger. Under the tree there are four roots, and if you need guidance, you follow the root to the Onondagas that lead to the peace that is situated in the central fire.<\/p>\n The Tree of Peace was founded on three great doctrines anchored to 1) Health of mind and body; 2) Peace among individuals and tribes; and 3) Equality in the adjustment of rights and obligations; order in all things.\u00a0<\/p>\n “What it symbolizes is the Great Law of Peace. It’s very important, it governs who we are and what we should be, and how we should be treating each other.” — Leroy Henry (2022)<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Location<\/strong>: Second Floor, Frank Holmes Centre, Huron University<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Copyright | \u00a9 | 2025| Leroy Henry. | Photographs by Ryan Rabie | Copyright | \u00a9 | 2025 | Huron Library. |Reproduction is prohibited.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Eagle Tree of PeaceLeroy Henry (b. 1974) Cayuga Nation, Turtle Clan 2020Soapstone10″ x 6.5″ x 2″ Eagle Tree of Peace represents the Great Law, and the tree (a white pine) was planted in the centre of the five nations [Mohawk, Oneida, Seneca, Cayuga, and Onondaga], where the chiefs meet.
