Biography

Teiowí:sonte helped to defend Kanatahséton from an attack by King Washington, by gathering the virgin boughs of the Red Willow to brew a strength-giving tea.

After the attack, Teiowí:sonte and his brother, Kahionhaténion, recovered Ratonhnhaké:ton from the village, using the powers granted them by the Red Willow. Teiowí:sonte also led Ratonhnhaké:ton to the Red Willow under the direction of Oiá:ner.

Some time later, Teiowí:sonte was captured by the Bluecoats while trying to free enslaved people from the Frontier, but was rescued by Ratonhnhaké:ton and Kahionhaténion.

Despite this, both Teiowí:sonte and his brother were killed in battle when Bluecoats followed Ratonhnhaké:ton's tracks back to the cave that the clan were hiding in.
