  Guyasuta - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Guyasuta (c.1725–c.1794) was an important leader of the Seneca people in the second half of the eighteenth century, playing a central role in the diplomacy and warfare of that era.
Guyasuta probably served as a scout for young George Washington in 1753, though he played a role in defeating the Braddock Expedition in 1755, and sided with the French in the French and Indian War.
Guyasuta was a maternal uncle to Cornplanter and Handsome Lake.
