In Huron mythology, Ioskeha was the all-good twin brother of Tawiskara, grandson of Ataentsic. He duelled with his brother for control of the world, each brother taking up whatever weapon he could find. Tawiskara fought with a rose-twig bu Ioskeha used a stag's antlers and won. Tawiskara fled into exile, weeping flint tears, and
Ioskeha celebrated his victory and his power in the world by creating the Huron people.
