I never saw him. However, I was aware of the Dark Times among the Iroquois tribes.

And in my prior post I threw shade on the indigenous people. But to be fair to not just them, but all groups, it was a tough time to be alive. It's a lot easier to justify taking over each other's land and such when you and your folks are starving. Life during the Little Ice Age meant lower crop yields, less predictable rain patterns, and more deaths from plagues. I'm not saying it's the only reason people in all groups did things like take over each other's land. But it was a major factor.

I like the fact that we live in the Modern Warm Period. It beats living in one of the cooling periods.
