Ito refer 10 wampum belts as Indian
money. The Indians priced them high
ly, not only as ornaments, but for their
historical value, because, in reality,
thew were records OF tribal traditions.
Each shell, quill. stone or piece OF
carved wood attached to the belt had a
meaning, Just as printed words have to
US. and the elders Of tribe knew how
20 read and compose them. There is a
famous wampum belt owned by rem
