- Caughnawaga_Indian_Village_Site abstract "Caughnawaga Indian Village Site is an archaeological site located just west of Fonda in Montgomery County, New York. The location of a former Mohawk nation village, the site was discovered in 1950 by Rev. Thomas Grassmann. It is the only completely excavated Iroquois village in the country. The Mohawk village site has been marked with stakes to show the outlines of the 12 longhouses and stockade that were built there 300 years ago. The entire site is open to the public, so people may walk around the former village and see the foundations of the Caughnawaga longhouses and the layout. The site is on a hill. The archeological site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.Below it have been constructed the Mohawk-Caughnawaga museum and the National Shrine of Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha, canonized in the 20th century as the first Native American saint in the Roman Catholic Church.The name Caughnawaga is derived from the Mohawk word kahnawà:ke, meaning "place of the rapids", referring to the rapids of the Mohawk River.It is also known as Indian Castle, or Gandaouage; or Kachnawage in Mohawk, meaning "castle" or "fortified place." This village with its defensive palisade was the Native American form of a castle. The site overlooks the Mohawk River and is also close to a natural spring.Caughnawaga was occupied by the Mohawk from 1666 to 1693. French Jesuits established a mission there, which operated for about 10 years ranging from 1668 to 1679; they taught some of the Mohawk to read and write in French, as well as teaching them about Christianity.The site is now a center for recreation and culture.".
