Abstract
This chapter tracks the journey of a Kahnawà:ke Mohawk woman in Montreal and Kahnawà:ke who deposited beaver pelts with her business partner, the French Canadian Marie-Magdalene Desauniers, who ran a discreet and illegal business. In the early part of the eighteenth century, her journey was common, if nominally illegal under the laws of New France and New York, and facilitated by women's daily cross-cultural connections. The chapter underlines that the Mohawk woman and other Mohawk traders continued to make these journeys because French and English law did not apply to them. French and English law especially did not apply in moving through Haudenosaunee territories, and traders depended on connections with Haudenosaunee traders. As the chapter shows, many of these connections were made within the mixed religious communities that both British and French officials hoped would convert Haudenosaunee individuals and secure Haudenosaunee nations as allies in the contest for control of the North American continent. The chapter concludes by noting that the intercolonial trade fit into a far older and broader tradition of wide-ranging movement. It then analyzes how Haudenosaunee women used their connections to European women to build beneficial ties to settler colonial communities without inviting settler colonial control of their communities.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
