What are the customs of north eastern woodlands?

The customs of the Northeastern Woodlands tribes, such as the Iroquois and Algonquin, include communal gatherings, storytelling, and seasonal celebrations that honor nature and the harvest. They often practiced agriculture, particularly the "Three Sisters" (corn, beans, and squash), and held ceremonies to give thanks for these crops. Social structures were typically matrilineal, with women playing central roles in decision-making and family lineage. Additionally, they engaged in trade and diplomacy, forming alliances through rituals and shared cultural practices.
