A black and white map of The Six Nations territory in 1771, on the coasts of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. The 1768 Treaty of Fort Stanwix boundary line separates Six Nations land from the encroaching colony of New York. By mapping the recently decided boundary, this document embodies the uneasy relationship between the Six Nations and the colonists.
