Walpi
photo id: 1018
Walpi is a significant Native American site that represents traditional Hopi architecture and identity. It is one of eleven occupied Hopi settlements. Unlike the other villages, Walpi still does not have running water or electricity.
This village was moved to its current location as a defensive measure after the Pueblo Revolt of 1680. Over the years the population has slowly dwindled as tribal members move to more contemporary housing. Today, Walpi is most commonly used for public ceremonies.

Traditional pueblos require a ladder to enter, which is why you can see so many of them here. To enter, you climb a ladder to the lower rooftop. Shorter ladders lead from there to the upper rooms.

Kachina Dance
This photograph is of Kachina dancers carved from wood. Kachinas appear to the Hopi from the winter solstice on December 21 until mid-July. They dance and sing in unison, symbolizing the harmony of good thought and deed; harmony required for rain to fall and for a balanced life. The rest of the year the kachinas remain in their home in the San Francisco Peaks.

The rest of the year the kachinas remain in their home in the San Francisco Peaks.
A kachina can take three forms: a powerful
unseen spirit, a dancer filled with the spirit, or a wooden figure representing
the spirit. Kachina dancers are always male, even when the spirit is female.
The men may present gifts of kachina figures to women and children during the
dances. Each village sponsors its own ceremonies.

Mishongnovi is one of the villages in Second Mesa. In most Hopi areas it is not permissible to take photographs or video. Sadly, illegal photography and a lack of respect for the traditions and ceremonial practices has led to the decision to bar non-natives from attending many Hopi ceremonies.
The
Snake Dance is part of an elaborate days-long ceremony in which tribal members
pray for rain. The Snake Dance is held alternately at the Hopi villages of
Mishongnovi and Shungopavi each year.

Hopi Footrace
It is said that some of the best long distance runners have received little or no recognition, possibly because they have never run publicly outside the Hopi community.
When speaking with Anna Silas from the Hopi Museum at the Cultural Center about Hopi athletes, she spoke of the Hopi runner Louis Tewanima. Tewanima is one of the most celebrated runners in Hopi history and is best known for winning a silver medal at the 1912 Olympic Games. Anna inducted Tewanima to the National Hall of Famous American Indians in Anadarco, OK in the 1980s.

In this picture are corn and melons on Sam Shingoitewa's farm, 15 miles southwest of Toreva Day School. It was taken in 1944.
Agriculture and grazing are important activities for Hopi. They perceive agriculture, particularly corn growing, from a different perspective than academics. The Hopi believe that when they advanced from the third to the fourth way of life, they received corn from Ma’saw. While the other people chose the largest ears of the corn, the Hopis selected the shortest blue ear corn.
From that time on, corn has occupied a significant position in the Hopi society and culture. To the Hopi, agriculture is a way of life. Moreover, their ceremonies mark the different phases of the Hopi agricultural cycle.

Old Oraibi on Third Mesa is thought to be the oldest settlement in the new world. It is located on top of Third Mesa, just above the town of Kykotsmovi, the tribal government seat. Old Oraibi is governed by a village chief and chooses not to have any representatives on the Hopi Tribal Council. The village also does not have any village administration and rejects any funding allocated to Hopi villages by the Tribal government.
Old Oraibi was established in 1100 A.D and was designated a historical landmark on July 19, 1964. Located on the westernmost of the Hopi mesas, this is probably the oldest continuously inhabited pueblo in North America.This particular photograph was taken in 1944.

Hotevilla Village
The first major dispute occurred in 1906 between two chiefs, You-ke-oma and Tawa-quap-tewa. Instead of fighting with bullets or arrows, the leaders staged a "push-of-war" contest. A line was cut into the mesa and the two groups stood on either side. They pushed against each other as hard as they could until Tawa-quap-tewa's group crossed the line and won. You-ke-oma, the loser, left with his faction to establish Hotevilla four miles away. This event was recorded a quarter mile north of Oraibi with the line and inscription: "Well, it have to be done this way now, that when you pass this LINE it will be DONE, Sept. 8, 1906." A bear paw cut in the rock is the symbol of Tawa-quap-tewa and his Bear Clan, while a skull represents You-ke-oma and his Skeleton Clan. Other residents split off to join New Oraibi at the foot of the mesa.

Hopi Woman Builders
Pictured here are Hopi women. Traditionally it was the women who did the building. Therefore, they own their homes and are the head of the family. Men assisted with the heavy lifting and occasionally even helped with the masonry work. Even today the walls are still hand-plastered by women.
A typical home was built using hand-trimmed sandstone and earth and grew organically over the centuries. The roofs consist of vigas (structural beams), latillas (branches used as sheathing), and a capping layer of willow twigs and earth.
The ancestral home is very dear to the Hopi hearts of men, women, and children alike.

Keams Canyon Aerial View
photo id: 516
An aerial view of Keams Canyon in 1948.
While serving in the military in 1863, Thomas V. Keams was sent to an area known as Peach Orchard Spring. Colonel KIt Carson was trying to capture Navajo Indians. When the fighting was over, Thomas spent time as an Indian Agent to the Navajos. After he married a Navajo woman, they returned to Peach Orchard Spring and established a ranch. This area is now known as Keams Canyon.
In 1869, Keams opened a trading post about three miles east of where it is currently located. The current trading post was built in 1879. Business was mostly conducted by bartering with the Indians who traded livestock and wool for flour, sugar, and tobacco. Eventually, Keams began trading for pottery which he took to the train stations and sold to passengers and later to Fred Harvey and Grand Canyon National Park.

Keams Canyon Boarding School
In 1875, English trader Thomas Keams escorted the Hopi village leaders to meet President Arthur in Washington D.C. Lololoma, acting chief at the time, was very impressed with Washington. He believed that education is what allowed the white man to be able to live in such a way. This belief caused him to want a school built for the Hopi children. In 1886, twenty of the Hopi leaders signed a petition sent to the Commissioner of Indian Affairs requesting that a school be built on their land. In 1887, Thomas Keams opened Keams Canyon Boarding School at Keams Canyon for the Hopi Indians.

The main objective of Keams School
was to teach the Hopi youth the ways of civilization by pushing Anglo-American
values. The Oraibi people were
not supportive of this school. They refused to send their children to a school
that was 35 miles away from their villages.

5th Cavalry With Hostiles in Keams Canyon
The chief of the Oraibi at the time, Lololoma, was very excited about Hopi education but the Oraibi people were divided on this issue. Most of the village was conservative and refused to allow their children to attend school. These Indians were referred to as the "hostiles” because they opposed the American government and their attempts at assimilation. In 1894, a group of Hopi parents announced that they were against the ideas of Washington and did not want their children to be exposed to the culture of the White American people. They also said that this argument couldn’t be settled peacefully, so the government sent in troops to arrest the nineteen parents and sent them to Alcatraz Prison where they stayed for a year.

Hopi Pottery
photo id: 1021
Hopi pottery, called Hano Polychrome or Sikyatki Revival, stands out among all of the pueblo and non-pueblo pottery makers. The white wash with poly-chrome painting is one of the most recognizable art styles in the world.
The
art style is different within each family of potters. Avid collectors are
familiar with the Hopi pottery by artist and almost instantaneously recognize
the artists.
