For Cayuga Nation, a day a century in the making WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30, 2003 The Cayuga Nation of New York took the first steps to reclaiming its homeland on Tuesday with the opening of a simple gas station. The tribe has been without a reservation. Its lands were sold off to New York state without federal approval, a federal judge ruled. The tribe says the four acres it has purchased are former reservation. With a casino in the works, gaming money will re-establish the tribe's homeland.
