About this museum
The exhibits here are drawn from a verified archive of the tribe’s primary records — constitutions, resolutions, council decisions, oral histories — assembled from the original scans, documents, and recordings by the tribe’s web team.
- Every record traces to its source. Resolutions are OCR’d from the original scans, operative text extracted verbatim, and the source preserved and hash-anchored so any record can be re-checked against the original — including the handwritten strike-throughs and margin corrections, which turn out to carry real history.
- Everything is independently re-verified, and every exhibit cites its documents, so any claim can be traced to the paper — or the tape — it stands on.
- What isn’t here: member records, private correspondence, and matters the tribe keeps to itself. The full archive remains with the tribe under its own rules; these exhibits are its cleared, public surface — and as more records are cleared, the museum grows.
What that looks like
Take one act in the tribe’s record. It was ratified with its number corrected by hand on the page — 69 struck through, 70 written above. The archive keeps the scan, the transcribed text, and a cryptographic fingerprint of the original, so the correction is never smoothed away — it is the record of a small government catching its own mistake in the moment.
Every record also carries a plain verdict — verified, needs a human eye, or unverified — and the museum only speaks in the confident voice where the record earns it. When something isn’t ready, it waits. That is why you will not yet find a current officer roster here, or certain cultural and language material: those records are real and held in the tribe’s own archive, but they have not passed the Council and Elders’ clearance — so the museum holds them rather than guess. The honesty is part of the exhibit.
The exhibits are curated from the records, not authored as the Tribe’s official history — that telling belongs to the Council, the Elders, and the storyteller.
