The Mohawk

Bonvillain, Nancy. (Author).

The Mohawk tribe, or "People of the Place of Flint," guarded the eastern realm (present-day eastern New York State) of the Iroguois Confederacy, which included the Cayuga, Oneida, Onondaga, Seneca, and later the Tuscarora tribes. In the seventeenth century, they established a profitable fur-trade partnership with both the Dutch and English, along the Hudson and Mohawk Rivers, and later became renowned for their beautiful basketry. Today, Mohawks primarily live in cities in the northeastern United States and on the reservations in New York State (Akwesasne) and in Canada (Akwesasne, Kahnawake, Kanesataje, Tyendinega, and Six Nations).
