Promoter of Peace - Respecter of Treaties - Defender of Righteousness - Valiant Warrior Leader of Indian Forces, forming one-third of the army of the De Nonville Expedition which passed (1687) along this Indian Trail.

"I cannot speak too highly of the assistance we receive from the Great Mohawk and his warriors" "Our Christian Indians surpassed all and performed deeds of valor especially the Iroquois upon whom we had not dared dared to rely to fight against their relatives."
De Nonville

The name of Athasata merits a place in history beside the names of the greatest Iroquois leaders.
