	Cayuga nation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Cayuga nation (Guyohkohnyo or the People of the Great Swamp) was one of the five original constituents of the Iroquois, a confederacy of Indians in New York.
		The Cayuga Indian Nation of New York commenced an action to reclaim land that allegedly was taken from it without the approval of the United States on November 19, 1980 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York.
		Both the plaintiffs and the defendants appealed this award and on June 28, 2005 the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit rendered a decision that reversed the judgment of the trial court and entered a judgment in favor of the defendants[5].

	Coast Guard Cutter Cayuga
		On orders from Oklahoma, Cayuga proceeded to San Sebastian where she arrived at 6:30 PM on 24 July and a motor surfboat was sent ashore to confer with American Embassy officials who were summering there.
		It is believed that the presence of Cayuga in her capacity as a Coast Guard vessel did much to allay the suspicion that the rival factions had of warships in general.
		The fortunate location of Cayuga at the outbreak of hostilities and her prompt dispatch to San Sebastian were important factors in assuring the safety of Americans and foreign diplomats at that place.

	Facts for Kids: Cayuga Indians (Cayugas)
		In times of war, Cayuga men often shaved their heads except for a scalplock or a crest down the center of their head (the style known as a roach, or a "Mohawk.") Sometimes they would augment this hairstyle with splayed feathers or artificial roaches made of brightly dyed porcupine and deer hair.
		The Cayuga tribe was known for their mask carving, which is considered such a sacred art form that non-Iroquois are still not permitted to view many of these masks.
		Cayuga warriors fought against most of the other eastern tribes, particularly the Wabanaki tribes, the Algonquin and Ojibway, and the Mohican bands.

	Cayuga Chronicles by Warren L. Hickman
		Cayuga chiefs quickly moved with the Cayuga warriors to the area around Fort Niagara from which they received food, blankets, guns, and other materials while using the Fort as their base for raids into Central New York and Pennsylvania.
		The Cayugas’ attorneys claim that even though the Act was passed by Congress after the signing of the 1790 "treaty", it is applicable because New York had become a state of the Union and was subject to all laws of the United States.
		If the interests spurring the 380 local Cayuga to make their claim in the 1990's are willing to ignore this inconsistency on the basis of what they claim to be the intent of Congress, then that intent should be carefully examined as well as the actual intent of the Non-Intercourse Act of March 1, 1973.

		SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) - The Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of Oklahoma is asking a federal appeals court for the authority to proceed with its plans for a bingo facility in Cayuga County.
		It was coincidence, Feldman said, that the Oklahoma tribe filed its appeal May 15, the same day that the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal of the 2nd Circuit's dismissal of the New York Cayuga's 26-year-old land claim and $247.9 million judgment.
		The Oklahoma tribe was a co-plaintiff in that case and maintained that it had sovereign rights to build the $25 million gaming facility because its Aurelius farm lies in the land-claim area.

	THE CAYUGA INDIANS AND THEIR LAND CLAIM
		In 1980 the Cayuga Indians filed a claim in Federal District Court alleging that the sale of the land by the Cayuga Indians to the State of New York in 1795 and 1807 was illegal because the United States Congress didn't ratify the sale.
		The Cayuga Indians accepted payment and moved away from the area seeking new land and food sources as is customary with nomadic tribes.
		That decision is why the State of New York, the counties of Cayuga and Seneca, and their residents are burdened with court costs and the stress concerning validity of title to lands that were bought in good faith over 200 years ago.
