Mohegan and Mohican are not the same tribe, but both are accepted for Uncas. The actual Uncas was a Mohegan chief. The fictional Uncas, title character of Cooper's
The Last of the Mohicans
, was named after the Mohegan chief.

I think this quiz would be better flipped around... give the tribe and achievement, and we name the person. Because as it is it's really more just guessing tribe names.

I think if you accept "Algonquin" for "Powhatan" and other general names for specific ones, you should accept "Iroquois" for the various Iroquois tribes. Which is to say, make it so that you can't give the general answer. Or, what Thalia said.
