I don't know about saying hello, but in all the movies I've seen, especially Peter Pan, people always raise their left arm forming an L and say "How" to make peace with Indians.
===========================================================
Answer: Meanwhile, in the real world outside the movies, there is no such language as "Iroquois" - the Iroquois tribes (Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga and Seneca) each spoke their own language. Holding up your arm and saying "how" to any of these people in the 17th or 18th centuries would get you tortured and killed as an enemy. Anyone who thinks they can learn real history from American movies is extremely foolish.
The Oneida tribe used the greeting she·kú for hello.
In Cayuga you said either sgęnǫ (hello/how are you) or hai (hello).
In Mohawk the word khwe was used for hello or hi.
In Seneca the general term of greeting was niyáwë skênö'.

∙ 11y agoAlgonquian is not the name of a language - it is the name of a very large group of distantly related languages that include Blackfoot, Cheyenne, Arapaho, Algonkin, Powhatan, Natick, Abenaki, Mahican, Sac and Fox, Menomini, Delaware, Cree, Ojibwe, Mi'kmaq and very many more.
It follows that there is no single word for hello or greetings - each language expresses that in its own way.
Among the Algonkin people, a commonly used hello or welcome was kwe kwe.

∙ 11y ago"Iroquoian" is not one language but a group of related languages spoken by tribes such as the Erie, Neutral, Tobacco, Seneca, Oneida, Cayuga and many others. It follows that there are many different words of greeting in these languages.
In Oneida, Tutelo and Cayuga, the word used was simply hai'.
The Cayuga also used sgęnǫ, literally meaning "it is well" but also used for "hello, how are you?".
