Vocabulary Iroquois Wampum The Three Sisters Palisades Longhouse Iroquois Confederacy

Iroquois The Iroquois (IHR uh kwoy) are a Native American tribe who lived in the Northeastern Woodlands.

Iroquois The name Iroquois means “People of the Longhouse.” The Iroquois were actually six nations combined together. The five original nations were the Mohawk, Oneide, Onondage, Seneca, and Cayuga. Later, the Tuscarora joined.

Clothing Iroquois wore clothing made from deerskin. The Iroquois made, wore, and traded wampum. Wampum are beads made from shells that are woven into strings or belts. Most Iroquois men wore their hair a mohawk. Iroquois women grew their hair long and usually wore it braided.

Food Iroquois were mainly farmers. “The Three Sisters” were their most important crops. The Three Sisters is the name the Iroquois gave to beans, corn, and squash. They also hunted and fished. In the spring, the Iroquois collected sap from maple trees and made maple syrup.

Villages The Iroquois built their villages near rivers. Villages were surrounded by palisades. Palisades are tall fences used as a barrier for protection. Iroquois warriors guarded the villages.

Shelter The Iroquois lived in longhouses. Longhouses are long, narrow buildings that housed many families that belonged to the same clan. Longhouses are divided in half by a long hallway. Each family lived in a small area that had an upper and lower level. Belongings were stored on the upper level and the family slept on the lower level.

Shelter An average longhouse was about 100 feet long and 20 feet wide.

Government Native Americans groups also had governing bodies. The Iroquois formed the League of Nations to discuss their needs and make important decisions together. The League of Nations is also known as the Iroquois Confederacy. Iroquois Confederacy – a Native American governing body that joined all 6 Iroquois nations. Each nation had a specific number of seats on the League of Nations. The women of each tribe selected the men that would serve as members of the Iroquois Confederacy.
