=Mohawks= = = What did Mohawk men hunted?** Do they cook their food with fire?** = = What weapons did Mohawks use in wars?** = = I think studying the Mohawk tribe is interesting. Did you know that Mohawk tribes eat outside of the Longhouses, not inside the longhouses? Weird. Mohawk tribes ate cornbread, soups, and stews and they cooked it on stone hearths. Mohawk men hunted deers,elks, and they fished on rivers. Mohawk men also used bows, arrows, or they fought with clubs, and they used spears and sheilds in wars or fights. I didn't know that in the old days, they had that many weapons to hunt or to fight with dangerous animals. Did you know that Mohawk women planted crops of corn, beans,squash, harvested wild berries and herbs. Isn't that a lot of planting for the old days? Of course it is! I also thought that in the old days they didn't know how to use fire or didn't even know what fire is, but I was wrong. They did use fire! I think this fact is the most interesting fact I gave you because can you believe about 1,000 years ago people knew how to use fire? No way! However, it's true. That is why I think Mohawk food is very interesting. = =
