</span>Wealth
In “Kaddo’s Wall,” the main character,
Kaddo, had a surplus of corn that was so great he did not know what really to do with
it. The one thing he knew for certain, however, is
that he did not want to share his corn with those less fortunate. Instead he has the corn made into flour and
the flour made into bricks with which he builds a wall around his house. The idea that Kaddo had so much corn that he
could use a life-sustaining substance to build a wall is quite opulent. Thus, because it is with (and out of) his
wealth that the wall is made, the wall symbolizes wealth.
