Where are the fires located inside Iroquois homes?
In the Traditional Longhouse of the Iroquois or Haudenosaunee, a fire would be located in the center aisle way between family units. A Longhouse could have multiple fires burning for warmth. Each longhouse held multiple families and while their would be a small fire for heat, majority of the cooking would be conducted outside of the Longhouse. -------------------------------- | Family | Family | Family | Cooking X .......X..........X...........X..... | Family | Family | Family | --------------------------------

How many people can live in longhouses at once?
Anywhere from 7 to 24 and beyond. Longhouses were family homes that grew with the size of the family. As each daughter of the family married, her husband would move into the longhouse and the birth of their children would result in an extension being built on the longhouse. People who lived in a longhouse together were considered part of the same clan.
What did Mohawk shelters look like?
TheMohawks lived in longhouses made of elm bark that were about 200 feet long. At each end there was a door with an emblem over it representing the clan. One longhouse would contain a clan, or extended family. There were separate rooms for each nuclear family (mother, father, and children). Out in the hallways there were storage shelves, and fireplaces every twenty feet. A longhouse contained up to about a hundred people. When there were too many people living in the longhouse, about half the family would break off and start their own longhouse. In Mohawk tribes a married couple would live with the bride's family and raise their children with them, so a longhouse would have one clan mother, the senior woman in the longhouse. This answer is just from the research I have done for a school project, but I and I am sorry if I got anything wrong.
