A Mohawk village.

The Mohawk were a tribe of indigenous people found in upstate New York. They called themselves the Kanien'gehaga or Kanien'keha:ka which means "People of the Flint". The village is by a lakeside in the Diamond Basin Hunting Region, on the Frontier.

At least one of their members, Ratonhnhaké:ton, joined the Assassin Order.

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 United States. Charles Lee and his Templar followers confronted Ratonhnhaké:ton as a child playing in the forest outside the village, and they later went on to torch the village, where Ratonhnhaké:ton lost his mother; Kaniehti:io, in their burning hut.
