Mohawk Indians

The Mohawk people were Native North Americans of the Iroquoian language family and of the Northeast culture area. After the American Revolution, many Mohawks moved to Canada, most on reservations at Brantford, Ontario, and at the Bay of Quinte. Two major US settlements remain in Franklin and Saint Lawrence counties in New York State.

The Mohawk Tribe Indians only wore their hair in a "Mohawk" when they went to war, the hair cut was named after them. Other wise they just let it grow long like all the other tribes. Women also wore their hair long except when they were greiving, in that case they cut it really short.

:) hope that is a bit better

The Huron men hunted black bears, moose, elk, wovles, deer, beaver, and rabbits. The birds they caught were partridges, wild turkeys, pigons, geese, herons, and ducks. They also caught many kids of fish.

Mohawk hunters used bows and arrows. Mohawk fishermen used spears and fishing poles. In war, Mohawk men used their bows and arrows or fought with clubs, spears and shields.

Other important tools used by the Mohawks included stone adzes (hand axes for woodworking), flint knives for skinning animals, and wooden hoes for farming. The Mohawks and other Iroquois were skilled woodworkers, steaming wood so that it could be bent to make curved tools. Some Iroquois artisans still make lacrosse sticks this way today.

The Mohawk tribes settled in upper New York as well as in parts of Ontario and Quebec, Canada. There are still settlements of Mohawk tribes living in upstate New York and the southern part of Canada.

Here is how you say hello or greeting to aunts and uncles. Yá'át'ééh is a greeting and means literally "it is good". The marks above make the vowel high tone. Without mark is low tone. The marks with a space are glottal stops. Like in English uh oh. The stop between the tow sounds is a glottal stop. "shi' means "my" uncle or aunt. Your uncle would have ni at the beginning instead.

Yá'át'ééh Shidá'í

hello (my)maternal uncle - said by male

Yá'át'ééh Shiyáázh

my maternal uncle - said by female

Yá'át'ééh Shimáyázhí

The Mohawk word for river is kahyonhowanen.

Those in the Mohawk tribe planted crops, and they were hunters. They ate the corn, beans, and squash that they grew. They also ate deer, elk, fish, and berries.

The Iroquois Indians are Native American people that lived in the Northeastern U.S. The area is also referred to as the Eastern Woodlands region.

All native American groups used the materials available in their local area. For the eastern woodlands tribes, trees of all kinds were the most common resource and so it was natural to use timber and bark for building houses.

The Mohawk were the most easterly of the Iroquois league, with villages originally scattered along the Mohawk River in east central New York State. They were friends of the British and a portion of the Mohawks moved into Canada during the American Revolution.

Honey was introduced by Europeans around the 17th century. The Natives referred to bees as "white man's flies"

The Mohawk Indians primarily hunted buffalo for their meat, which provided a vital food source. They utilized the buffalo's hides for clothing, shelter, and blankets, and bones for tools and weapons. Additionally, buffalo fat was used for cooking and preserving food. Overall, buffalo were integral to the Mohawk way of life, supporting their sustenance and culture.

The Mohawks had three types of government; sort of like our municipal, provincial, and federal (in Canada). The senior women in each extended family would choose two chiefs: a civilchief for normal affairs, and a military chief for solving arguments with other clans. These two chiefs would go to a town council to discuss matters (like the municipal government). A lot of the time several towns in an area would cooperate and have bigger councils to discuss important issues. Representatives from each town council would go to these (similar to the provincial government). Sometimes there was a big problem that the whole Mohawk nation needed to discuss. When that happened the representatives would go to an even larger meeting of chiefs (like the federal government). Decisions were democratically done, so the opinion of the majority of chiefs would win.

There is some evidence that the Mohican Tribe enjoyed playing the boardgame Risk. They believed that their ancestors would posess one of the two to six players and give them incite into the strategy of their enemies. Many a times the tribe was narrowly saved when in game battles shown the fall of the red player and the tribe moved for safety. They also enjoyed double dutch.
