The Hopi Reservation (Template:Langx) is a Native American reservation for the Hopi and Arizona Tewa people, surrounded entirely by the Navajo Nation, in Navajo and Coconino counties in northeastern Arizona, United States.[1][2][3][4] The site has a land area of 2,531.773 sq mi (6,557.262 km2) and, as of the 2020 census had a population of 7,791.[5]
The two nations formerly shared the Navajo–Hopi Joint Use Area until the Navajo–Hopi Land Settlement Act created an artificial boundary through the area. The partition of this area, commonly known as Big Mountain, by acts of Congress in 1974 and 1996, has resulted in continuing controversy.[6][7]
The system of villages unites three mesas in the Pueblo style traditionally used by the Hopi. Walpi is the oldest village on First Mesa, having been established in 1690 after the villages at the foot of mesa Koechaptevela were abandoned for fear of Spanish reprisal after the 1680 Pueblo Revolt. The Tewa people live on First Mesa. Hopi also occupy the Second Mesa and Third Mesa.[8] The community of Winslow West is off-reservation trust land of the Hopi tribe.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
The Hopi Tribal Council is the local governing body consisting of elected officials from the various reservation villages. Its powers were given to it under the Hopi Tribal Constitution.[9]
The Hopi consider their life on the reservation (in particular, the traditional clan residence, the spiritual life of the kivas on the mesa, and their dependence on corn) an integral and critically sustaining part of the "fourth world".Script error: No such module "Unsubst".Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
