Seneca Indians : ウィキペディア英語版
Seneca people

The Seneca are a group of indigenous Iroquoian-speaking people native to North America who historically lived south of Lake Ontario. They were the nation located farthest to the west within the Six Nations or Iroquois League (Haudenosaunee) in New York before the American Revolution.
In the 21st century, more than 10,000 Seneca live in the United States, which has three federally recognized Seneca tribes. Two are in New York: the Seneca Nation of New York, with two reservations in western New York near Buffalo, and the Tonawanda Band of Seneca Native Americans. The Seneca-Cayuga Nation is located in Oklahoma, where their ancestors were relocated from Ohio during Indian Removal. Approximately 1,000 Seneca live in Canada, near Brantford, Ontario, at the Six Nations of the Grand River First Nation. They are descendants of Seneca who resettled there after the American Revolution, as they had been allies of the British and forced to cede much of their lands.
==Name==
The Seneca nation's own name (autonym) is ''Onöndowága,'' meaning "Great Hill Place." It is identical to the endonym used by the Onondaga people. At the time of formation of the ''Haudenosaunee'', they lived as the farthest west of the five nations within the league. They were referred to as the Keepers of the Western Door. Other nations called them ''Seneca'' after their principal village of ''Osininka''. Since "Osininka" sounds like the Anishinaabe word ''Asinikaa(n)'', meaning "Those at the Place Full of Stones", this gave rise to further confusion. Non-Haudenosaunee nations confused the Seneca nation's name with that of the Oneida nation's endonym ''Onyota'a:ka'', meaning "People of the Standing Stone." ''Oas-in-in Ka'' (Seneca) means "Stone Place."
