Seven Fires Prophecy (English) -- the lynchpin story of Ojibway culture. Prophets came to the people
instructing them to migrate inland from the Atlantic Ocean to escape destruction and establish themselves
at the western and northern shores of the Great Lakes. The prophets also foresaw the coming of the
White man and the loss and destruction of Ojibway culture and land. The final prophecy (Seventh Fire)
predicted the revival of Ojibway people and life along with renewed prosperity.

Sganyodae:yoh (Iroquois)- Iroquois Handsome Lake, the Iroquois name for Lake Ontario as well as the
name of an important holy man and prophet who lived in upstate New York at the end of the eighteenth
century and the beginning of the nineteenth century. He established a Code of behaviour for his people
based on the old ways of the Iroquois and advocated complete separation from the White and and his
ways.

Sundance (English) -- This is a Lakota ritual that may have found its way into the rituals of neighbouring
tribes including the Western Ojibway whose territory was adjacent that of the Lakota. It was done
primarily by men in order to dedicate themselves to the welfare and protection of their community. Bone
awls were pushed through the skin overlaying the pectorialis major. Leather thongs were knotted around
the awls and then attached to a bent sapling in the centre of the dance area. The dancer would move
around the tree, leaning against the thongs at intervals so that the awls would eventually tear free of the
skin.
