The Mohawk Indians are one of the six nations of the Iroquois Confederacy. They are also known as the People of the Flint. The Mohawk have a rich cultural heritage that includes art, music, and dance. Mohawk art is typically characterized by its geometric designs and use of natural materials such as wood, stone, and bone. One of the most famous examples of Mohawk art is the wampum belt, which is a ceremonial item made from beads strung together in intricate patterns. Wampum belts were used to record important events and treaties, and they were also used as currency.
