Derived from the popular State Museum exhibits devoted to the lifeways of the Iroquois, which feature a full-scale longhouse, several dioramas and a miniature of a complete Iroquois Village, this website has multiple layers of very rich content.

Although primarily designed for use by students, including those who wish to replicate the popular "build your own longhouse" program initiated by the Museum a few years ago, this site is going to be one of the most popular for learners of any age with an interest in the Iroquois.

It also allows people at a distance to "visit" these popular exhibits, virtually.

It draws on staff research expertise, exhibits, and collections and is a collaborate project of George Hamell and Bill Rogers (content), and Phil Lord (web-work).

Stop in a take a look, but I warn you, be prepared to spend some time, because there is lots here to hold your interest.
