the cayuga tribe had shamans which were the medicine men and they believed in the spirit world. their families were in clans and they claimed a common ancestor. they used wampums (a bead made from shells or the strings, belts, sashes) to decorate tools, weapons, and jewelry. white stood for peace and black stood for gloomy matters. the children played with cornhusk dolls and babies were in cradleboards.
