An official Path Through History Site! The Iroquois Indian Museum building is a work of art designed in the shape and spirit of the longhouses that once graced the valleys of upstate NY. Archaeology exhibits focus on the ancestors of the Iroquois. History exhibits highlight the men’s realm of hunting, warfare, chieftainships, and games and the women’s realm of the longhouse, the clans, the crops, and politics. The Museum represents the world’s most comprehensive collection of modern Iroquois art which celebrates the ancient unity of the Iroquois still expressed in the creative spirit of today’s artists. Yearly exhibitions feature: Native Americans in the performing arts, Iroquois iron workers, stereotypes, & contemporary Iroquois art.
