- Is it true that the Iroquois Nation fought against other
Iroquois tribes?
Yes, as it was with the American Civil
War, Native tribes often fought amongst themselves; the Ohio
Seneca were forced to migrate West, and join the Mingo
Indians so they would survive a battle between them and
their Eastern brethren. It was not uncommon for one
village to fight against its neighbors. The advantages
of being a sedentary tribe is evident in the Iroquois'
agriculture, and the fortified agglomerations of longhouses
surrounded by long wooden stake fences that formed their
villages.
