Overview

The Kahnawake Mohawk Territory is a First Nations reserve on the south shore of the Saint Lawrence River in Quebec, Canada, across from Montreal. Established as Seigneury Sault du St-Louis by French Canadians in 1719 as a Jesuit mission, it was formerly known as Caughnawaga. There are 17 European spelling variations of the Mohawk Kahnawake and the name Kahnawake refers to at least three historical places in New York State, in addition to the latest one.
