Wampum
The Native American tribe traded goods using wampum beads as currency.
You mean wampum belts, not wampum which simply refers to the shell beads from which belts were made (the Wampanoag word Wampumpeag = small white shell beads).Wampum belts were not produced until after contact with Europeans, so it is likely that they were influenced by European writing and documents; since they natives could not write they recorded important events such as treaties or agreements in pictorial (pictographic) form on wampum belts.The link below takes you to an image of Tsawanhohi holding a wampum belt, 1825:

Wampum was money to the Native American culture...their medium of exchange.
To symbolize what the people were like. Whom ever wore what kind of wampum belt.
That's going to cost us some serious wampum, dear.
