Iroquois is a Confederation of tribes; not a tribe, it is several, each with there own language, This is inaccurate, and not hard to fix.
"UNKNOWN" With the Iroquois commwnt, IDENTIFY YOURSELF! It is inaccurate not to know your identity. Native people always start with identity traits name, tribe, clan.
