The Mohawk tribe, part of the Iroquois Confederacy, had a matrilineal social structure, meaning lineage and inheritance were traced through the mother's line. Women held significant power, particularly in decision-making and land ownership, while men typically took on roles as warriors and hunters. The society was organized into clans, each led by a clan mother who played a crucial role in selecting chiefs and guiding community affairs. Overall, the social structure emphasized cooperation, communal living, and respect for both genders' roles.

I guess you are referring to the so-called "Mohawk hairstyle" that many people today incorrectly believe was worn by the Mohawk Iroquois. This idea is totally false, so forget everything you ever heard about Mohawk native Americans wearing their hair like that. Unmarried Mohawk women and girls, like all the Iroquois group, wore their hair long and loose; married women wove it into one large braid at the back, doubled up and fastened with a buckskin strap. Mohawk men either wore their hair long and loose, or cut in a fringe at the front, or shaved all the head except for a round scalplock at the crown (back of the head), with a roach of dyed deer hair attached with a bone "spreader", to which was fixed a single feather. Nothing like the modern "Mohawk" hair style, which no historic Mohawk Iroquois would recognise.
Sound Western drama to me, like Last of the Mohicans. It is believed that Mohawk and Mohican are the same tribe. Mohawk division shut down in l972, ran all over upstate NY- it was part of the NY Central system- transportation.
Yes, the Mohawk tribe, like many other Indigenous peoples in North America, participated in the practice of capturing and enslaving members of rival tribes, particularly during the height of intertribal conflict and warfare. They sometimes took prisoners in raids, which could result in those individuals becoming slaves or being adopted into the tribe. However, the nature and practice of slavery among Indigenous tribes varied widely and often differed significantly from European concepts of chattel slavery.
