There is no "Iroquois language". Each tribe of the Iroquois League spoke its own individual language (Oneida, Seneca, Onondaga, Cayuga and Mohawk). These are all related but individual languages, each with its own words for a chief.In Oneida the word for a chief is -hsʌnowanʌ- or thuwakwa·nʌ́ or -atlutanuˀn-In Cayuga a chief is hadigowanęs or hodiyanehsǫ or hoyanehIn Tuscarora (a later addition to the Iroquois League) a chief is rahgawahneh.The word Ife appears to refer to an ancient city in the African kingdom of Yoruba (part of Nigeria). It has no connection at all with any native American language.
