A twelve foot tall, limestone slab sculpture of Wyandot Indian, Chief Leatherlips sits atop the hill overlooking the Scioto River to the west at Scioto Park in Dublin. The Dublin Arts Council commissioned the work and dedicated it in Scioto Park on July 1, 1990. The park is believed to be the location Chief Leatherlips' last hunting camp. In 1810 he was executed by tomahawk on the orders of his brother, Roundhead, for being too friendly with the white settlers.
