The Mohawk were a tribe of indigenous people found in upstate New York.[1] They called themselves the Kanien'gehaga or Kanien'keha:ka, which means "People of the Flint". One such Mohawk village was by a lakeside in the Diamond Basin, on the Frontier.
At least one of their members, Ratonhnhaké:ton, joined the Assassin Order.[2]
During the American Revolutionary War, due to unresolved conflicts with settlers encroaching into the Mohawk Valley, and outstanding treaty obligations to the British Crown, the Mohawk fought against the Continental Army,[1] though Ratonhnhaké:ton's village remained neutral to the fighting, as they were ordered by the First Civilization member Juno to protect the Grand Temple.[2]
