2. The Iroquois believed the creator or Great Spirit, made the world. They also believed that almost all natural things were under the care of spirits. There were spirits of the wind, clouds, rain, trees, plants, medicines, and more. A ceremony for the Iroquois is when someone died in their family or a relative. When a crucial chief died, the whole league made a ceremony.

3. Our tribe house is a longhouse. It looks like a narrow wooden house that Iroquois live in that is what a longhouse is. Servile clans lived in a longhouse at once. Iroquois traditionally lived in bark covered longhouses. Iroquois also lived in wigwams, dugouts, and longhouses made out of twigs and leaves.

4. The Iroquois fish, plant crops called the Three Sisters, eat bear, deer, and muskrats. They hunt them and use bow and arrows to catch them. They grew the plants from water and sunshine and they also had to have perfect weather for the plants to grow The men cleared the land because the women stayed inside and did the cleaning and cooking. The land was cleared by the tools of cropping. The girls helped the mothers make pottery and the boys helped the men hunt and do the crops.

5. Every bodies clothing was handmade. You’d wear deer skins that the women had tanned, cut, and sewed. Like other Native Americans, the Oneida used what nature provided and fashioned it for their needs. Women wore long skirts that reached almost to their ankles. Their skirts were decorated with beads or porcupine quills dyed red, blue, and yellow. Sometimes women wore leggings under their skins. On top they wore a deer skin vest or blouse. Men wore kilt-like skirts almost to their knees over leggings. They, too, wore blouses or vests made or decorated deer skins.

6. The contribution of the Iroquois is the transportation they used were canoes and boats and they also walked across the land. The canoe looks like a banana and floats in the water and it’s smaller than a boat.
