The Iroquois lived in a densely wooded section of New York State. This forced them to use wood in their way of life. Items such as spears, fishing poles, bows and arrows, shields, knives, snowshoes, housing and more were created from this common resource. They became skilled woodworkers and would steam the wood to bend and curve it into a multitude of necessities.

The wood led to the creation of lacrosse, an Iroquois past time that has evolved today into metal sticks.

They lived in close proximity to water and could easily fish and farm off of the fertile land. Women planted crops such as corn, beans, squash and harvested berries and herbs.

Animals they hunted provided their wardrobes which consisted of feathers, fur and leathered skin.
