Iroquois legend refers to the body of oral traditions of the Iroquois people, a Native American tribe of the Northeastern Woodlands region. These legends are a collection of customs, beliefs, stories, and music composed to explain the Iroquois worldview. The legends traditionally focus on the spiritual symbolism that forms the basis of Iroquois life, such as the creation of the universe, the importance of unanimity, and the balance of the natural world. Iroquois legend continues to be a core part of Iroquois culture and is used to pass on shared cultural values and beliefs from generation to generation.
