		The Onondaga (Onundagaono or the People of the Hills) are one of the original five constituent tribes of the League of the Iroquois (Hodenosaunee).
		In the American Revolutionary War, the Onondaga were at first officially neutral, although individual Onondaga warriors were involved in at least one raid on American settlements.

	Facts for Kids: Onondaga Indians (Onondagas)
		Yes, the Onondaga were one of the original members of the Iroquois League, or Kanonsionni in their own language ("league of clans.") The other member nations were the Mohawk, the Seneca, the Cayuga, and the Oneida.
		In times of war, Onondaga 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 "Mohawk.") Sometimes they would augment this hairstyle with splayed feathers or artificial roaches made of brightly dyed porcupine hair.
		The Onondaga and other Iroquois tribes were known for their carved masks, which are considered such a sacred art form that outsiders are still not permitted to view many of these masks.

	languagehat.com: Comment on THE IROQUOIS BOOK OF RITES.
		I'll throw in an additional monkey wrench to the effect that in the context of the historic Iroquois confederacy I always understood that by virtue of geography the Onondaga nation was the "central" meeting-place and that, pretty much by consensus and default, the Onondaga language was used in confederate council meetings as the "official language".
		In particular, there was a lot of tension between the Mohawk, who considered themselves the preeminent "eastern door of the longhouse," and the western members, especially the Onondaga, who were the "name givers" of the League and considered themselves entitled to speak for it.
		When Garakontié, the chief diplomat of the Onondaga, made a peace treaty with the French in 1654, the Mohawk were extremely pissed off, and "the two sides fought with each other until the ground was stained with blood and murder" (quoted in S.S. Webb, 1676).

		It started as an aid to myself in my attempts to organize the many features of this language, which is quite different from languages I have been familiar with earlier.
		Through the close resemblance among the Northern-Iroquois languages, I hope to help also people who are interested in other Iroquoian languages (Seneca is practically identical to Mingo; Onondaga, Cayuga are mutually intelligible to a native speaker.

		The language of the Haudenosaunee is very important to maintain in its traditional form because it is an important part of one's identity and worldview.
		Linguists classify the language of the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and Tuscarora as Iroquoian.
		An important thing to keep in mind when looking at the languages of the Haudenosaunee people is that because the language is pictorial it does not translate very well into the English language.
