What is a wampum and how do the Iroquois use it?
Wampum was a bead made from shells. For many years it was a key currency used in the colonial times. The purple ones were particularly prized, as there was only a small part of the shell that could be used to make them. Wealthy Indians and even colonists would wear belts and sashes of wampum. Actually, Wampums are money that some Native Americans use. Please note: Wampum or Wampum belts, were not used as money among Native American tribes as that was a European introduction where colonists used it as a medium of exchange (money). wampum was invented by the iroquis
