1 The Five Nations alliance belt. A perpetual reminder of the national 

 union. This belt is mutilated. 



2 Gyantwaka treaty belt. A fragment of the belt passed to the Indians 

 at the sealing of the Cornplanter reservation treaty. Other portions of the 

 belt were cut up and divided among the heirs of Cornplanter. 



3 Cornplanter's personal belt. This belt and a beautifully engraved toma- 

 hawk, both in the State Museum, are probably the only relics of the dis- 

 tinguished chief who destroyed all his etTects for religious reasons. 



4 Belt of the Keeper of the Western Door. Sometimes called the Parker 

 belt, from Gen. Ely S. Parker who held it as the Do-ni-ha-ga-wa of the 

 confederacy of the Five Nations.
