What were men and women's roles in the Cayuga tribe?
Cayuga men were in charge of hunting, trading, and war. Cayuga women were in charge of farming, property, and family. These different roles were also reflected in Cayuga government. Cayuga Indian clans were always ruled by women, who made all the land and resource decisions for each community. But Cayuga chiefs, who made military decisions and trade agreements, were always men. Only men represented the Cayuga tribe at the Iroquois Great Council, but only women voted to determine who the Cayuga representatives would be.
