Last Friday, Administrators of a school in Ohio, USA called the Mother of a kid to come and pick him up from school. The kindergarten student was being suspended for sporting a Mohawk hairstyle.This bit of news got me researching more on Mohawks..... Mohawks became a popular fad in mid 1960s and then in mid 1980s it became common with the youth punk subcultures. The Mohawk is often thought to be worn by the Mohican or the Mohawk Tribes. In this hairstyle both sides of the head are shaved or buzzed and the remaining hair in the middle is left long and often spiked.
Joseph Brant is the most well known of the North American Indians. He was a Mohawk leader and a British Military Officer during the American Revolution. Brant was born near prsent day Akron. Ohio. He was named Thayendanegea which possibly meant "he who places two bets". He was a Mohawk of the Wolf Clan (his mother's clan).

Personally, I am in awe of this hairstyle. To sport a Mohawk, one would need a lot of spunk!
