Grand Sachem Iron Thunderhorse
Iron Thunderhorse (Biwabiko Paddaquahas) is the Grand Sachem of ACQTC’s Thunder Clan. He is a direct descendant of Elizabeth Sakaskantawe Brown of Totoket (Branford, CT), the last matriarch; and she was related to the last Sachems of Mioonkhtuck (East Haven, CT) James Mah-wee-yeuh, who passed on at Cheshire, CT.
Iron Thunderhorse is the voice of the past for ACQTC and the guide for our future. He writes a bi-weekly column in the Branford Review which focuses exclusively on Quinnipiac history, language, and lore (and is soon to be syndicated), and a bi-monthly column in Ancient America.
He has over a dozen books in print, twice as many specialized booklets for QTC Press, and hundreds of magazine articles. He is currently co-authoring a booklet with Little Owl, Thunder Clan Headwoman, about Honoring the Elders. This booklet will contain Little Owl’s poetry and Iron’s orations and chants, in English and in the Wampano/Quinnipiac R-dialect.
Iron is a gifted artist, carver, crafter, linguist, historian, orator, lecturer, and grant-writer.
