One who claims to be of Native American, First Nations, and/or American Indian descent in order to gain tribal affiliation and/or potential affirmative action benefits when, in reality, neither can the pedigree be traced, nor can the DNA evidence in themselves and/or family members be found. Pronunciation rhymes with 'Mohegan', the US Federally Recognized Tribe based in Southeastern Connecticut, for which the large resort casino 'Mohegan Sun' is named. 'Faux' (pronounced 'Foh') comes from French and means 'fake' or 'imitation' in common American English usage.
