5. OK, I'm ignorant ... what's the Kanion’ke:haka tribe? Are they known under
another name?

At first I thought this was the Iriquois, but aren't they the "Five Nations" ?? :shrug:

6. They are the Mohawk people in Canada.
The six nations, - Oneida, Cayuga,Onondaga. Seneca, Tuscarora and Mohawk. Also a martilineal society where the women rule the roost.
