Answer 2

The Big House Ceremony was performed by the Lenni Lenape/Delaware until 1929.  It was a 12 day ceremony and was used for healing, singing visions and more.

The Corn Planting ceremony was done by many tribes and each tribe did something different.

Remember, 500+ nations with different religions and ways of doing things.

Answer 3

the corn dance which is still done among the 5 civilized tribes is performed by men around a fire for a night and a day without rest or stop.  To do so will spur the women standing near to "scratch" them with a thorn branch to let out the evil spirits.  A cleansing ritual.
