By about 1615 the long traditions of interethnic conflict between the two alliances had become inflamed, and each bloc formally joined with a member of another traditional rivalry-the French or the English. Initially the Huron-French alliance held the upper hand, in no small part because the French trading system was in place several years before those of the Dutch and English. The indigenous coalitions became more evenly matched after 1620, however, as the Dutch and English trading system expanded. These Europeans began to make guns available for trade, something the French had preferred not to do. The Huron found that the technological advantage provided by iron axes was emphatically surpassed by that of the new firearms.\" §REF§<a class=\"external free\" href=\"http://www.britannica.com/topic/Native-American/Native-American-history#ref968222\" rel=\"nofollow\">http://www.britannica.com/topic/Native-American/Native-American-history#ref968222</a>§REF§ The Mohawk obtained guns in the first half of the 17th century: \"In the early 1640s the Mohawk obtained guns, first from the English and then in large numbers from the Dutch.\" §REF§Fenton &amp; Tooker 1978, 468§REF§"

            "description": " The Huron confederacy obtained guns before the Iroquois did: \"For a period of time the new weapons enabled the Huron confederacy to gain the upper hand against the Iroquois, who did not gain access to European goods as quickly as their foes. By about 1615 the long traditions of interethnic conflict between the two alliances had become inflamed, and each bloc formally joined with a member of another traditional rivalry-the French or the English. Initially the Huron-French alliance held the upper hand, in no small part because the French trading system was in place several years before those of the Dutch and English. The indigenous coalitions became more evenly matched after 1620, however, as the Dutch and English trading system expanded. These Europeans began to make guns available for trade, something the French had preferred not to do. The Huron found that the technological advantage provided by iron axes was emphatically surpassed by that of the new firearms.\" §REF§<a class=\"external free\" href=\"http://www.britannica.com/topic/Native-American/Native-American-history#ref968222\" rel=\"nofollow\">http://www.britannica.com/topic/Native-American/Native-American-history#ref968222</a>§REF§ The Mohawk obtained guns in the first half of the 17th century: \"In the early 1640s the Mohawk obtained guns, first from the English and then in large numbers from the Dutch.\" §REF§Fenton &amp; Tooker 1978, 468§REF§"
