 | | The Oneida territory was in what is now New York State, with the Mohawk Nation east of this land and the Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca territories to the west. |
 | | At first the Oneidas wanted to remain neutral, but after their homes and fields had been destroyed, young Oneida warriors joined the war and fought on the side of the colonists while elders, women, and children fled their homes. |
 | | Even though the Oneidas, like other Iroquois, had been a horticultural people prior to the war, the expectations after the war were that they should develop European-style agriculture. |
