This project will showcase cultures of diplomacy between the British Crown and the Iroquois (Haudenosaunee), focusing specifically on the range of objectives listed below. Although the processes surrounding settlement of American lands have been explored in depth by scholars such as Karen O’Brien, Pekka Hämäläinen and Stuart Banner, the vital dimension of diplomacy between the Crown and the dominant indigenous Northeastern confederation, has not.
