Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Where was Duncan leading the soldiers, before they were ambushed by Indians?

Answer: Fort William Henry

The soldiers were supposed to reinforce Fort William Henry, but they did not realize that there was a spy in their midst, and he led them right into the ambush. Only Duncan, Cora, and Alice survived the attack, thanks to Hawkeye and the Mohicans.

2. Supposedly a Mohawk guide, which character led the British into the ambush?

Answer: Magua

Magua, played by Wes Studi, was really a Huron allied with the French, but the British believed he was a Mohawk. Magua then secretly killed the other two guides so he could set up the ambush.

3. We all know the Mohicans saved Major Duncan Heyward and the Munro sisters, but which tribe attacked them?

Answer: Huron

Hawkeye asked Duncan why the Huron (meaning Magua) would want to kill Cora. Duncan claimed that Magua was a Mohawk, but Hawkeye corrected him by saying Magua had deceived them and that he was really a Huron.

4. What was Magua's nickname for Colonel Munro?

Answer: Gray Hair

Magua hated Colonel Munro for killing his children and causing his wife to marry another. He intended to wipe Munro's line out forever by killing him and his two daughters. Magua called Munro Gray Hair when he was talking to Montcalm about his plan.

5. The Mohicans decided to help defend Munro's besieged fort. But after a few days Hawkeye was placed under arrest. What for?

Answer: Helping settlers leave the fort to defend their homes

Indian war parties had been attacking settlements near Fort William Henry, but Colonel Munro refused to let the militia leave because he needed them to help defend the fort. Hawkeye helped some of the militia escape by telling them the easiest path to take through the woods, but he stayed because of Cora.

6. As they were escaping down the river in their canoes, Duncan attempted to shoot Hawkeye with a pistol. What did Hawkeye say to Duncan in response to this?

Answer: "Nothing better to do on the lake today, Major?"

Duncan was both jealous about Cora and Hawkeye falling in love and mad that Hawkeye helped some of the militia leave the fort. Duncan then replied that he would have Hawkeye hanged as soon as they get to safety.

7. Where did Hawkeye, Uncas, and Chingachgook take everyone to hide from the Indian ambush?

Answer: A cave behind a waterfall

They made it seem as if they had gone down the falls in their canoes, but the Hurons weren't fooled. The Hurons soon found the group, so Hawkeye, Uncas, and Chingachgook escaped down the river to try and rescue everyone later.

8. What did Hawkeye and Uncas use to pull Chingachgook out of the river?

Answer: Hawkeye's long rifle

After jumping through the falls and escaping the Huron war party, Hawkeye and Uncas managed to climb up on a rock. Chingachgook almost floated past them and drowned, but Hawkeye and Uncas used Hawkeye's long rifle and pulled him out of the river just in time. Hawkeye was famous for his shooting ability, being called La Longue Carabine by the French and their Indian allies, out of fear of his deadly aim.

9. Who was killed by Magua along the cliff edge?

Answer: Uncas

Uncas ran ahead of Hawkeye and Chingachgook to try and save Alice. He attacked Magua, but Magua injured him early and eventually finished him off. Chingachgook then ran in after this and killed Magua, avenging his son.

10. True or False: To prepare for his role as Hawkeye (aka Nathaniel Poe), Daniel Day-Lewis lived in the wilderness for months.

Answer: True

Thanks to IMDb.com for that one. Apparently Daniel Day-Lewis is known for his odd ways of preparing for roles. Just some interesting info I thought I'd throw in at the end. Daniel Day-Lewis also starred in "Gangs of New York" and "My Left Foot".
