My website project explores the intricate beadwork of the Iroquois Tribe, indigenous to the Northeast Woodlands, highlighting its cultural significance and historical evolution. Beadwork is a key aspect of Iroquois artistic expression, rooted in spiritual and social traditions. The website displays traditional bead working techniques, patterns, and materials like wampum and glass beads, showing their adaptation over time. It also examines beadwork's roles in rituals, ceremonies, and storytelling. Despite modernization, beadwork preserves its traditional history and symbolizes resilience and cultural continuity. The website features visual galleries and interactive elements to engage viewers with Iroquois beadwork's legacy
