Tadodaho (by Ellis)

This is a picture of Tadodaho who was an Iroquois leader. He is an evil leader and he has twisted snakes in his hair to show how evil he was. He always wanted war and not peace, but another leader named Hiawatha wanted peace. Tadodaho was so rude that he killed Hiawatha's wife and daughters! But when Hiawatha told Tadodaho that if they all made peace his tribe could be the capital, he finally agreed. They dug up a pine tree and put all their weapons in it and they would not use them again.

  4. Ellis,

    You're welcome! Thank you for taking the time to create such an informative picture and to write a history of what was happening at the time. That will really help anyone who visits the blog and does not know who Tadadoho is.

    Guess what? I never heard of Tadadoho until I read this blog. On top of that, I thought Hiawatha was a woman. I'm learning a few things from the Fourth Grade Explorers! Thank you.
