Porcupine hair roaches are a traditional headdress of a number of Native American tribes in what is now present-day New England, the Great Lakes and Missouri River regions, including the Potawatomi who lived where Chicago now stands and the Mohawk tribes. They were and still are most often worn at pow wows. The term roach also applies to the traditional Mohawk hairstyle worn by Mohawk men.
