The Grand Council is made up of the Hoyaneh from each nation. There are 50 in total. Although they rarely spoke at Grand Council meetings, all Iroquois people, men and women had ways to make their voices heard in the decision making of the Grand Council.
To make a decision, the Grand Council discussed issues in a set order. Council decisions had to be unanimous, so the Grand Council always worked towards consensus. This is the way decisions about traditional and cultural matters are made by the Iroquois today.

Wampum is a vital part of Onondaga and Haudenosaunee culture. It is created from the shell of a clam. The Wampum symbolizes titles within the Haudenosaunee. Each Clan Mother has their own Wampum String.
Book:
among the iroquois, wampum beads made from shells are woven into patterned strings or belts that record important events, ideas, contracts, pledges, or treaties among nations. When Europeans started to arrive in north america, the iroquois negotiated and concluded agreements with the newcomers and presented them with records of the agreements in wampum. Wampum strings and belts were used at councils of the iroquois, and still are.
