Abstract
On May 17, 2021, the Red Jacket Peace Medal was repatriated by the Buffalo History Museum to the Seneca-Iroquois National Museum. As Seneca Nation President Matthew Pagels explained, the “medal represents what lives inside each and every Seneca person: the heart of a sovereign and our rightful recognition as such.” The Peace Medal and its long history are a fundamental part of Seneca national identity, a memory shaped by Red Jacket, Ely Parker, Harriet Converse, and Arthur Parker. This repatriation reveals the influence of these four on the long and complex, but ultimately indigenous, legacy of Iroquois exceptionalism.
