Iroquois Nation

This website is really good,it has all the information about Iroquois,like their food,customs and festival.I know a lot in it.
I learned they usually hunt deers for eating, and the teenagers will follow the elders to hunt.
Hunt their food and learn at the same time.In addition,most of the Iroquois tribes have six big festival every year.These festivals are hold to thanks to the good health food and also the clothes.

This website is easy to read,and it is useful to learn about the Mohawk.However,it doesn't have any pictures in it.
I learned the name"Mohawk" was given to the tribe by the Algonquin,and this tribe tribe was one of the five founding Nations of the Iroquois League.In addition,the sixth Nation to join were the Tuscarora.

This is a webpage from http://www.mohawktribe.com/ ,I think it is helpful to learn about Mohawk's leader.

I learned called Joseph Brant by the whites was one of the famous leaders of this tribe.He leaded the whole tribe to side wuth Britain during the Revolutionary War.The tribe found themselves in the middle of the tensions mounted between the America and the British.In addition,Joseph returned from England to travel among the six Indian nations with message notto stay neutral.

There are too many thing about him.Anyhow,he maybe was the most sighnificant chief of this tribe---Mohawk.
