The Iroquois Constitution used symbols from nature to convey important ideas because the Iroquois people depended on nature and understood its effect on everyday life. Option one is correct.

The Iroquois Constitution, also called the Great Law of Peace, constitutes a great oral narrative that describes the formation of a League of six nations: Cayuga, Onondaga, Mohawk, Oneida, Seneca, and later on, the Tuscarora nations.

Its origin was prior to the arrival of European settlers to America.
