1600’sCorn Husk DollsMany year ago a women want to make someting different. She made everything she needed to. She wanted to do more so the Great Spirit gave her permission. So she made little dolls out of corn husk, and they were to roam the Earth and bring peace to Iroquois tribes. She made one that was very beautiful. The beautiful corn person went into the pool and saw her face. The people became very unhappy. The Great Spirit decided that wasn’t what she was to do. She didn’t care about his warning, so the last time someone came to tell her she would have a punishment.
