Between 1600 and 1800, French and English traders traveling through the wilderness that is now the eastern and midwestern United States used these axes with shiny brass studs to trade to the Indians for fur. The trade axes were carried with pride by chiefs and other high ranking members of the Iroquois, Mingo and Wyandot tribes, which once lived in the area Wilson calls home. |
