Utica is an ancient city in modern day Tunisia.
Site of several Punic battles.
Very close to that scene in Patton where Scott says he was there.in antiquity....Battle of Zama
Lots of Uticas here including near where I grew up in MS

I thought the Mohawks got run into Canada for siding with the Limeys during the Revolution.
Killed a few family members if the stories are correct, the hell with foreign Indians.

The Choctaw tribe in MS seem OK.....pretty cohesive and with less of the bad issues
I have noted out west that Indian run businesses on the various highways are poorly run in comparison to whites
And that the Puebloan folks tend to be a little more organized
Small wonder given they could build apartments pretty early on without the wheel
It appeared to me most northeastern coastal Indians are as much or more black or white as Indian
But the Mohawk from the NY Canada border are pretty real looking.....kinda big and aquiline with great hair
I was just in Cherokee NC yesterday coming back from biz
They appear very Indian....the Real People.....isolated in remote Appalachia a century plus

Sad when the majority erase another people from history. Sadder when the minority peoples erase themselves.

I think I’ll get a mohawk haircut just to be politically in-correct.

Better rename the haircut. Better rename the “Mohawk” Valley. Mohawk carpet.

That is so silly. So it is politically incorrect to name anything after a group of people? I guess half the place names in the the country would be out.
Why don’t we just give it up and name stuff A, B, C, etc?
Here is a politically incorrect skit for a Saturday morning.

PS. If the name Mohawk offends you, don’t watch this. Your head will explode.

HOPE-fully when barry is but a disagreeable distant memory things may begin to return to NORMAL

Mohawk gets walked on all the time by everyone and just lie there like a door mat.

Sigh. If the locals have a problem, then I understand the name change. It’s bad for business. And the folks in Windsor Terrace like their bars.
