NATIVE AMERICANS
Native Americans have been living in what is now the United States of America
since long before any Europeans came. They are not just a single group of people – there
are many different tribes of Native Americans. Different Native American groups have
different languages, religious believes, and ways of living, or folkways.
The Hopi are Native Americans who come from what is now the American
Southwest. When the Spanish came to America in the 16th century and found the Hopi
people, they nicknamed them “pueblo people” because Hopi people didn’t move around
much – they lived together in what amounted to towns. Pueblo is a Spanish word that
means “town.” The Hopi have always been a very peaceful people. Their name comes
from the term Hopituh Shi-nu-mu, which means, in the Hopi language, “The Peaceful
People” or “Peaceful Little Ones.”
The Navajo come from the same general area as the Hopi. But instead of staying in
one place, they moved around. They didn’t live in permanent towns like the Hopi. They
were a “semi-nomadic” people. While the Hopi were historically known for farming, the
Navajo were known for hunting and gathering. After they met the Spanish, the Navajo
became known for herding sheep. The Hopi, not so much.
Today, there may not be as many thriving Native American tribes as there used to
be, but there are more than a few. All in all, there are about 1,000 different groups of
Native American people in the United States, and each group is unique.
