the Seizer
was chief,
and all were friends.

Does
his pictograph “body Language” fit with the Historian’s phrase that
“All were Friends?

NOTE; The
prominent long straight nose and the
lines for the eyes and mouth.
The same face was carved on the posts guarding the Big House at the last LENAPE gathering
in Oklahoma in AD 1928.
.
The time span
between this LENAPE history stanza and the last BIG House is 558 years.

Can simple
images endure to define a people for over five centuries?
.
Or is the face a common occurrence anywhere at any time?

Why do
historians ignore the images maintained by small groups of Americans?

The tall ones,
the men from the pleasing land,
the men with food,
the stone men.

The
Historian lists four groups of men,
who
are “friends.”
.
The
“Tall Men” may be associated with the Norse word “Chik” which means to cast a
shadow. The circle with the two vertical lines may represent them.
These may be men from the southern regions of the Mississippi, where the
Chickasaw tribe still lives.
The Tall Men had apparently forgotten one of the Father-Son-Holy Spiritt concepts or the line was rubbed off the stick. We do not know which one is missing.
.
Fhe "men from the pleasing land" may be represented by the circle with the horizonal lines. This symbol may refer to the relatively flat land of the Dakotas and Minnesota.

\The syllable
“MA” can mean food. The circle with the plus sign may
represent the people with the food. Omaha, NB, means "Look, food!"
.
The syllable "assin" means "stone." The blank circle may represent stone.
.
The “Stone” men may have been from Pipestone, Minnesota, where stone pipes and other useful artifacts were made.

What
are your thoughts about the symbols?

The LENAPE
Historian took two stanzas to tell us that the LENAPE had made friends with
most of the people in the Red River and
Whetstone River valleys. The
settlement of 1housands of LENAPE might have taken two years or more.
.
Every thing was getting better. All the surrounding people were friendly.
