About this listen
The Oneida – People of the Standing Stone
Long before modern borders, the Oneida Nation built a society rooted in balance, responsibility, and deep respect for the natural world. Known as the People of the Standing Stone, the Oneida were—and remain—one of the original nations of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, one of the oldest democratic systems in human history.
In this episode of The History Labyrinth, we explore how Oneida gender roles created balance rather than hierarchy, how women shaped agriculture and governance, and how men hunted and fished with care and ceremony. We uncover how the Oneida cultivated the land through the Three Sisters, crafted tools for survival, and built a culture designed to last for generations.
We also confront the impact of colonization, land loss, and broken treaties, while highlighting the resilience of the Oneida people today. This episode is not just about the past—it’s about what the Oneida legacy teaches us now: sustainability, shared leadership, and the power of cultural survival.
Step into the Labyrinth and discover a story that is still being lived.
