66.189.103.225: Tribe implies all Mohawks, which are split up into different clans and villages. Since Connor's clan is not mentioned (it would be turtle, wolf, or bear), we can only safely say the ball is important for the village.

'''Oiá:ner''', also known as the Clan Mother, was the leader of the [[Kanien'kehá:ka]] village of [[Kanatahséton]]. She and the other Kanien'kehá:ka in the village served as protectors of the sacred ground on which both their village and the [[Grand Temple]] stood. Oiá:ner was also the keeper of the village's [[Crystal Balls|Crystal Ball]].<ref name="AC3">''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''</ref>

In 1769, Oiá:ner showed their Crystal Ball to [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] upon his return from a hunt and allowed him to interact with it. The Crystal Ball forced him into the [[Nexus]], where he communicated with [[Juno]] and learned of his destiny with the [[Assassins]].<ref name="AC3"/>

Many years later, the Clan Mother met with an adult Ratonhnhaké:ton and told him of the whereabouts of [[Kanen'tó:kon]] and other Kanien'kehá:ka men, who were attempting to attack the [[Continental Army|Continental soldiers]].<ref name="AC3"/>

Some time following Kanen'tó:kon's death, Oiá:ner spoke with Ratonhnaké:ton once more, where she revealed to him that she planned to move their people to the west to avoid the [[American Revolutionary War]], like many of the other nations had been doing. After his unpleasant reaction, she told him that she would do what was best for her people, to which Ratonhnaké:ton left the village. On his return some years later, he found the village deserted save for an old vagabond, who told him that his people had already gone.<ref name="AC3"/>

==Trivia==
*"Oiá:ner" is the Kanien'keha word for "clan mother", and translates to "righteous" or "she is good". Aside from this title, the actual name for the Kanatahséton clan mother is not given.<ref>[http://www.mohawktraditionalcouncil.org/clans.html Mohawk Traditional Council website]</ref>
