Masked Medicine Societies of the Iroquois is a book written by William N. Fenton that explores the traditional healing practices of the Iroquois people. The Iroquois Confederacy, which includes the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and Tuscarora nations, has a rich history of using masks, dances, and songs in their healing ceremonies. Fenton's book provides a detailed account of these practices, including the roles of the various members of the medicine societies, the symbolism of the masks and dances, and the ways in which these practices have evolved over time. The book also examines the cultural significance of these practices and their role in maintaining the social and spiritual well-being of the Iroquois people. Overall, Masked Medicine Societies of the Iroquois is a fascinating exploration of a unique and important aspect of Native American culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
