Answer:

The right handed twin was the smart, responsible, and sensible twin who always tried to do the right thing whereas the left handed twin was the a devious lied who always did things based off his own guidelines. The Iroquois honored both twins so that they would balance each other out. The world could not exist without both of them and if it did then it would be unbalanced. The elements of nature explained were good vs evil, right vs wrong, and good vs bad. This is shown through the battle between the opposite twins and how they balance each other out.
