Recently in Social Studies class we did a project on Indigenous communities. We were put in groups and given one to research. My group researched the Iroquois community. Here are a few  interesting facts about them:

1. The Iroquois lived in houses called longhouses
2. Up to 60 people could live in one longhouse
3. The iroquois had different roles depending on the gender.
4. A little over 100 iroquois people live in quebec 
5. Mohawk is an iroquois language still spoken today.
6. The iroquois had different clans. 
7.  The Iroquois had a war where different clans allied with the British or french.
8. More than 200 people can live in an iroquois village.
9. There was a trail that connected the five nations called the Iroquois trail. 
10. The iroquois great council still meets today

 

 Anyways, Thank you for reading. I hope you learned some interesting new facts about the iroquois!
