History of use
Narrative
Removed from display in 1997. This mask was sold as a tourist item from 'Iroqrafts' (Iroquois Crafts & Arts store on the Six Nations Reserve) however many members of the community believe that any false face items should not be displayed to the public, so it is currently treated as culturally sensitive and not displayed.
Physical description
False face mask with copper eyes, red mouth, and 'blond' horse hair.
