Hendrick Tejonihokarawa, also known as Tee Yee Neen Ho Ga Row and Hendrick Peters (c. 1660 – c. 1735) was a Mohawk chief in the Province of New York. He was one of the Four Mohawk Kings who went to London in 1710 to meet with Anne, Queen of Great Britain and her court to mark a treaty with Great Britain. The chiefs requested the Queen's help in countering French influence in New York and asked for English missionaries to help their people offset French Catholic influence. The Mohawk diplomacy helped the Iroquois preserve their power through the colonial years.
