Interested in Learning More About Seneca Village?

Seneca Village is a fascinating piece of New York City History. What we learn from this site, the objects recovered there, and the history of Seneca Villagers, are integral to maintaining a multifaceted view of 19th century New York.  Even examining singular objects, such as the teapot covered here, reveals much about the lives, power, and agency of groups often left out of the telling of history. Ongoing research into Seneca Village and sites like it will hopefully foster a more inclusive telling of America’s past.
