History of the Oneida Indian Nation

History of the Oneida Indian Nation is a public mural in Utica, a stop on the city’s Mural Trail, that tells the story of the Oneida Indian Nation in Upstate New York. It spans 200 feet and stands 10 feet high, a big canvas for a big story.

The Oneida are one of the original Haudenosaunee nations, and their homelands include much of what is now Central New York. A mural like this is an easy way to learn a bit of that history while walking around Utica.
