| | Democrat & Chronicle: City casino deal may be closer |
 | | Attorneys for the New York Cayugas have filed research that says fewer than 2 percent of the Oklahoma tribe’s members have any Cayuga heritage, and that 2 percent come from Cayugas who left New York before the 1794 treaty on which the land claim is based. | | | Thursday’s memorandum of understanding with the Cayuga Indian Nation of New York signals the state’s interest in settling a longstanding land claim of the Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of Oklahoma. | | | The Seneca-Cayuga and New York Cayuga have been embroiled in a federal land claim suit in Seneca and Cayuga counties since 1980. |

| | ICT [2004/09/14] Let the games begin: Seneca-Cayuga Tribe has legitimate claim |
| | Unlike the Cayuga land claim case, the Oneida land claim remains at an unsettled impasse. | | | As descendants of Cayuga Indians who never left New York, the nation's sovereignty over land claim territory faces a lesser degree of challenge. | | | But two factors - the collapse of their June memorandum of understanding with Albany to settle the land claim in exchange for a casino and continued pressure by the Oklahoma tribe - seem to have derailed their aspirations, at least for now. |

| | The Mingo were groups of independent Iroquois - mixed Seneca and Cayuga hunters with a heavy percentage of descendents of Neutrals, Huron, and Erie who had been adopted by the Iroquois during the 1650s. | | | The British were aware of the American dilemma and let it be known to the alliance tribes they would support them in any conflict with the Americans. | | | This self-serving agreement was between two parties who could no longer control the people they represented - the British for the Americans and the Iroquois for the Ohio tribes - and condemned both to a fifty-years of war which claimed more than 30,000 lives. |

| | Members of the Oklahoma tribe say there's no doubt that Cayuga blood still runs in their veins, although the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs forced them to change their membership rules to include patrilineal descent as well as matrilineal descent. | | | Both tribes have hired expert witnesses, who have filed lengthy documents claiming to prove or disprove the Oklahoma tribe's continued connection to the New York lands. | | | In the 170 years that the tribe has been in Oklahoma, it endured federal pressure to change its way of governing and how it defined membership, and even a failed attempt in the 1950s to end its official existence. |
