Can you identify the language, and do you know where it’s spoken?

The only guess I can make is an Amerindian language from some of the sounds and the timbre of the voice. Strange as it sounds I keep thinking I hear “Noah” so it is a translation of the Flood story?
I don’t know what it is, but it reminds me of Cherokee. I’ve seen Cherokee before on a language quiz, so probably not it. Perhaps some language related to Cherokee?
Then again, maybe so… I don’t know.
I’m Cherokee and I can confirm it’s not Cherokee, but it sounds Iroquoian. I’ve heard Mohawk before too, and I’m pretty sure it’s not Mohawk, so I think it could be Seneca, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida, Tuscarora, or Wendat. It could also be Algonquian: I’ve heard Ojibwe and I’m fairly certain it’s not Ojibwe. If it’s Algonquian I’d guess Shawnee
I agree with CDK ,it’s Iroquoian, Onondga.
The answer is Onondaga (Onǫda’gegá’ / Onoñda’gegá’) -, a Northern Iroquoian language spoken in Ontario, Canada and New York State, USA.
