A Kanien’kehaka (Mohawk) woman created this horseshoe, recognized as a European-American symbol of good luck. This souvenir reads “Caughnawaga” the name of the maker’s community at the time. In an effort to reclaim the community’s name in their own language, the town, which is located on the St. Lawrence River in Canada, is today called “Kahnawake,” which means “at the rapids.”
