In such expressions as the "Prince of Peace," "the author of peace," "give peace in our time," we find kayanerenh employed with this meaning. Its root is yaner, signifying "noble," or "excellent," which yields, among many derivatives, kayanere, "goodness," and kayanerenh, "peace," or "peacefulness."
The term sachem, it may be added, is an Algonkin word, and one which Iroquois speakers have a difficulty in pronouncing. Their own name for a member of their Senate is Royaner, derived from the root yaner, noble, and precisely equivalent in meaning to the English "nobleman" or "lord," as applied to a member of the House of Peers. The boast was not unwarranted.
