In many cultures Pine Trees represent wisdom, longevity, fertility and peace as well as being associated with immortality, steadiness and resilience, possibly due to their successful adaptation to diverse often harsh environments and their hardiness with being evergreen in nature.  The Iroquois people were American Indians in the Northeast region of the United States. To them, the white pine is a symbol of the Great Peace that united their separate nations into an enduring League. Pine trees can be found all over the world and they are almost always associated with some important spiritual symbol.
