Oneida people
The Oneida people (autonym: Onʌyoteˀa·ká·, Onyota'a:ka) are a Native American and First Nation tribe. They were part of the Iroquois Confederacy. Their name means "People of the Standing Stone". The Oneida, Mohawk, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca were the first tribes of the Iroquois Confederacy. The Oneida lived in upstate New York and around the Great Lakes. There are four tribes today. The US government recognizes the Oneida Indian Nation in New York and the Oneida Nation in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
