5. North American Indian people, the easternmost group of the Iroquois Confederacy, living in Canada and the United States Their language is a member of the Iroquoian language family. Their name for themselves is Kahniakehake, which means "People of the Flint" and within the confederacy they were considered to be the "Keepers of the Eastern Door." The Mohawk lived near what is now Schenectady, New York They were semisedentary; women practiced corn agriculture, while men hunted during the fall and winter and fished during the summer. Related families lived together in longhouses. Most Mohawk sided with the British in both the French and Indian War and the American Revolution, in the latter under Joseph Brant. They number more than 35,000 and have a wide reputation as structural ironworkers; many have been hired in the building of major bridges. |

6. Iroquoian-speaking North American Indian tribe, the easternmost group of the Iroquois League (q.v.; Iroquois Confederacy); they occupied three villages west of what is now Schenectady, New York, United States Like the other Iroquois tribes, the Mohawk were semisedentary. Women practiced corn (maize) agriculture while men hunted during the fall and winter and fished during the summer. Related families lived together in longhouses, the symbols of Iroquois society. According to traditional accounts the Mohawk leader Hiawatha was the first to accept the principles of peace preached by the prophet of peace, Dekanawida, who founded the Iroquois League. The Mohawk had nine representatives in the league, three from each of their clans of the Turtle, Wolf and Bear. Each Mohawk community also had a local council that guided the village chief or chiefs. The Mohawk frequently warred against neighbouring Algonkian tribes; the Dutch introduction of firearms in trade for beaver skins increased the number of Mohawk victories. After contact with Europeans, however, their population decreased rapidly. Most Mohawk took the part of the British in the French and Indian War, but some Catholic converts (the praying Indians of Quebec) at mission settlements on the St. Lawrence River, principally at Caughnawaga, espoused the French cause and guided expeditions against their former brothers of the league. Later, during the American Revolution, the Mohawk were pro-British, under their leader Joseph Brant and followed him to Canada, where they have descendants at the Bay of Quinte and Six Nations Indian Reserve at Brantford, Ont. Their total number in the late 20th century was about 5,000. Some are successful farmers and others are workers in structural steel in the United States and Canada, traveling from city to city to find jobs. The danger of this work seems to constitute part of its attraction for the Mohawk. |
