Mohawk Indians

Well.... they played Tag and Hide and Go Seek. But their favorite was lacrosse. they did not have much equipment. They had a stick with a net at one end, and a ball made out of wood or animal skin, a goal past at each end on the field and no other protective equipment. The purpose is the same today as back then.

what i know about the Mohawks are alot of things. one thing is that they called themselves kanienhaka, or "the people of the flint". the Mohawks were an Iroquois-speaking tribe and belonged to the six nations or the Iroquois Confederacy which was an alliance formed between the Mohawks and a few other tribes. they also settled in upstate new york and lived where what is nowLake Ontario and the st Lawrence river. they also signed a major peace treaty with the U.S. government called the treaty of Canandaigua. the treaty has been signed by a few representatives of the Mohawk tribe and pres. George Washington and the official agent of the U.S. , Timothy Pickering. the treaty was signed on November 11, 1794. hope ur happy and thnx for reading.

fixed fix

I've got no idea. That's what I want to know.

Actually, they were not neutral . A majority supported the French since they had established relationships with French settlers and trappers. The French treated them well and often married into the tribe, but the English had always treated them as inferior and taken land from them as they settled into areas.

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.

One way that the Mohawk tribe adapted was to change their style of dress. They started wearing the European styles of clothing.

In the past, the Mohawks lived in east-central New York. Some Mohawk people still live in New York, but most of them moved to Canada in the 1700's.

Most likely, both men and women wore colorful robes. Women wore a lot of jewelry made of gold and precious stones (especially rich women).

It depends on what your name is.

they all share political power

Mohawk men traditionally engaged in various roles that included hunting, fishing, and farming, which were essential for their community's sustenance. They were also involved in warfare and defense, protecting their territory and people. Additionally, many Mohawk men took on leadership roles within their clans and participated in decision-making processes in their councils. In contemporary times, Mohawk men may work in diverse fields, including construction, manufacturing, and other professions.

it was very cold in the winter and they had moderate summers.

they basically lived in new york. in depth, they lived along the areas of what are now lake Ontario and the st Lawrence river. their traditional homeland stretched southward of the Mohawk river, eastward to the green mountains of Vermont, westward to the border with the Oneida nation traditional homeland territory, and northward to the st Lawrence river. hope ur happy and thnx for reading.

I think they were alive in the late 1400's or the early 1500's.

See the link below. They did not call themselves Mohawk (eaters of flesh) but called themselves "People of the Flint"

By the way, my family is Cherokee- we have the same problem- the "ch" sound does not exist in our language- it came from a Creek Indian guiding the English- in Creek, it means "Can't understand them".

To the earlier poster- the haircut was named for the tribe, not the other way around.

what type of communication they used

It had many longhouses surrounding the town square, where the fires were made.

i think they would tell stories i dont know...

There's actually no such language as "Creole". The word creole refers to a type of language that results from the combination of two completely different parent languages. There are more than 100 different creolized languages in the world, so you would have to specify which one you're talking about.

If you're not sure, here is a list of the most commonly spoken Creoles in the world (one of them is even an official language):

1. Louisiana Creole French, spoken in Louisiana
