Algonquin Heritage Preservation
Shinnecock Mueseum We are an ancient people actively involved in preservation our Algonquin heritage and culture, as we have done for thousands of years. With the establishment of our tribal museum on our reservation, near Southampton, Long Island, New York, we have reached yet another milestone in our long and proud march through history. Dedicated to the Ancestors, whom we are taught to honor from generation to generation, the museum with its carved deer door officially opened in June of 2001.

Ours is the only Native American owned and operated museum on Long Island. As we present both our ancient and living Eastern Woodland culture, we the Shinnecock, People of the Stony Shore, welcome you to the Shinnecock Nation Cultural Center and Museum for an exciting and educational experience.

Dedicated to Our Ancestors. Please log on or visit us at http://www.shinnecock-museum.org/index.html

Religion:
The majority of the people of the Shinnecock Indian Reservation are Christian, with ties to the Presbyterian Church that date back to the 17th century. Tribal members attend church services on the reservation at the Shinnecock Presbyterian Church, the oldest continuous reformed Indian Church in the United States. Tribal members also regularly attend other protestant denomination churches in the area, and worship as Roman Catholics as well. However, traditional worship is still practiced by a number of tribal members. Shinnecock Church
