The name "Iroquois" was given by European settlers, derived from a French adaptation of a Native American term. The Iroquois themselves refer to their confederation as the Haudenosaunee, meaning "People of the Longhouse." The term "Iroquois" specifically refers to a group of nations, including the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and Tuscarora. The name reflects the complex interactions between Native Americans and European colonizers.
