Iroquois Confederacy

[cegorach]

The official thread will be used to add more information about the faction.


For now you can post anything you find useful including ideas for faction specific buildings, events, advisors etc MILITARY UNITS EXCLUDED - that is well researched and only later we will possibly need more details.

Yes it was a confederacy- clans were subdivisions within each tribe. Obviously, Onadaga, Cayuga, Senaca, Mohawk, Tuscarora and Oneida were the 6 tribes as of 1722. Pre-1722 the Tuscarora were still in North Carolina, hadn't been expelled by the British colonists yet. Created in 1572 I think. As the 5 nations. As I do not own MII:TW yet, don't know what really to say although I have a feeling you do not know the Tuscarora were added very very late.

No I knwo about it. Polish sources are quite detailed. In fact I have found more than in English language books or on websides...

Finding screens was a little more difficult and and some computer mod forums were handy, I have to admit that.

'League of the Iroqouis', by Lewis henry Morgan, intro. by Wiliam N. Fenton, 1962, 1990, 1993, etc., a complete and unabridged copy of L.H. Morgan's 1851 classic and first truly scientifc study of an American Indian Tribe/Nation.

Originally 'League of the Ho-de-no-sau-nee, or Iroquois', Rochester, NY 1851.

1. Ga-ne-a-ga-o-no, People Possessors of the Flint, Mohawk Nation.

2. O-nun-da-ga-o-no, People on the Hills, Onondaga Nation.

3. Nun-da-wa-o-no, Great Hill People, Seneca Nation.

4. O-na-yote-ka-o-no, Granite People, Oneida Nation.

5. G-we-u-gweh-o-no, People at the Mucky Land, Cayuga nation.

6. Dus-ga-o-weh-o-no, Shirt Wearing People, Tuscarora nation. The Tuscarora may have been related to the Cherokee.

I believe the Iroquois have some of their own websites, as do the Cherokee, but there is an immense amount of literature in the USA including many first hand accounts of both European settlers and the Iroquois themselves.

Occasionally you can meet an Iroquois, whether Mohawk or etc. around Detroit and Windsor, and in New York. You may visit some Reservations and there are museums.

Many Indians, Ojibwa, Pottowatami, Chippewa, Wyandotte/Lake Huron around here, and much literature.

There was no such thing as 'The Last of the Mohicans', the Mohican are alive and well back east.

Tremendous amount of first hand and latter literature here in the USA and Canada.
