What is the purpose of the first paragraph of this section of the iroquois constitution? to describe the meaning of the shell strings to describe the consequences of disobeying one’s tribe to describe the traditions of the lords to describe the history of each tribe in the five nations

'i am dekanawidah and with the five nations confederate lords, i plant the tree of great peace. I plant it in your territory , adodarhoh, and the onondaga nation, in the territory of you who are firekeepers.'

from this first paragraph of the iroquois constitution, i think the paragraph : Describe the traditions of the lords, which is firekeeper. In other word, they're the one who responsible to maintain the peace

hope this helps
