- 1-more 3y agoyeah I think my issue stems from getting taught that wigwam was a synonym for longhouse when we learned the terms in school in the Northeast (like dead in the middle of an Iroquois nation). Haudenosaunee (endonym for Iroquois) literally references the longhouse. Wigwam has nothing to do with longhouse! It's an Algonquian word (further East from the Iroquois). Will keep this in mind.
