There is an Iroquois society of Husk Faces or Bushy Heads. Their masks look like braided door mats on which the pile is cut off on the inside for the face, leaving a bushy fringe around the outside. Holes are cut for eyes and mouth. Husk Faces are said to be a race of agriculturalists who taught mankind hunting and agriculture. They visit the Seneca long house during two nights of the Midwinter Festival. Nowadays these are made by a number of northeastern Indian tribes. This one was purchased in Canada about 20 years ago.
