Iroquois+Six+Nations+Confederacy

=== Kyann Rentzelos & Kara Dunal - Intergrated Project '09  - Marjorie Murray   === ===The Iroquois Confederacy is a group of six American Indian nations that joined together sometime between 1400 and 1600 A.D. The tribes were the Mohawk, Seneca, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga and later the Tuscarora, in about 1722. Originally feuding nations, they were eventually convinced by Hiawatha and Deganawida to live under one law called the Great Law of Peace. As separate nations, they were small, but as one, they were very strong. The name "iroquois" was given to them when french traders first met the Algonquin people. They called their enemies "Iroquois", or "snakes". The Iroquois call themselves "Haudenosaunee", or "people of the longhouse". ===
