I've got a large map project going (as in, it has been in the works for over a year), and now I'm feeling out a different aspect to it.
The most basic idea is that a Vinland colony survives just a tad longer, so that horses are released, along with other game. Although the colony withers, the inhabitants assimilated, and the whole thing is forgotten in the dustbin of history, the major differences have already been set in motion. Fast forward a few hundred years, when European powers begin searching out across the Atlantic. They find a powerful Haudenosaunee Empire, already immune to most of their diseases, and posses a version of the horse (smaller and more hairy than the OTL wild horse, the Mustang, as it is from Greenlandic stock).
My question is this: what could a possible merge of Iroquoian folklore and religion with Christianity look like?
