Trivia

  • The name Mohawk -- meaning "man-eaters" -- was given to them by their rival tribe, the Algonkians. It is not know if they actually were a cannibal culture or if the name refered to their alleged ferocity in battle.
  • The Mohawk people called themselves Kanienkehaka, which means "people of the flint"
