The Iroquois lived north east woodlands. They were a strong tribe. By reading this you will learn some information about the tribe.

The Iroquois had clothes that are interesting and I will tell you about them. To begin with they had shirts. That shirts can be yellow, red and blue. The colors are made from berries.  The Iroquois wore long sleeved shirts that where made from buck skin. The girls made them. Secondly our skirts are long The girls have skirts thair  are made from buck skin. And they are go to their ankels. And know you can see that are clothes are very interesting

The Iroquois had interesting food and I well tell you about themFirst I will you about the vegetables.  We had a lot of vegetables like corn, squash beans, tomato’s and cucumbers. We can grid our corn with are corn grid with are corn grinder we can make corn bread. The Iroquois ate many types of meat. Our meats were deer, beaver, bear, rabbit, squirrel,and turkey. The men hunted them. We did not eat it raw.We cooked the animal. Now you can see Iroquois have interesting food.

The Iroquois have good tools and weapons. First I will tell you about a tool. The tool I will tell you about is snow shoes they were made from wood. the snow shoes were big so they would not sink in to the snow. They had a strap so you can slip your moccasins in. Secondly we have bows. Our bows are made from a 4ft limb of cedar and sinew. Sinew was from the animals tendons and the sinew was the string. One can see that are tools and weapons our interesting and good.

I well tell you about two interesting facts about how the longhouse was made. To begin with are house was huge! Our house was to fiveteen to tweenty ft high. Tweenty ft is the height of twoof our class rooms. It was onehundred-fifty ft long and thirtyfour families could live in one. One hunderd-fifty ft is as long as the elementary hall. Another fact about the long house is how it was formed. The wood and poles would make the framed.. The poles would keep the house up. In conclusions the Iroquois made an interesting longhouse.
