The correct answer is 2. The Iroquois

Step-by-step explanation:

Before the arrival of the English settlers into the North American territory during the 17th century, there were multiple American Indian cultures in the territory including the Cherokee, the Apache, the Iroquois, the Kiowa, among others. In the case fo the Iroquois this includes five different groups that are the Seneca, the Onondaga, the Mohawk, the Oneida, and the Cayuga and because of this they are known as the five nations, although there are other groups such as the Eire, Cherokee and the Wyandot that have been considered as part of the Iroquois as all of these groups spoke languages derived from the Iroquois language. Therefore, the American Indian culture that was made up of several groups who spoke a common language was the Iroquois.
