Hopi Happenings!
The Hopi people got their name from a word that means "peaceful people". Hmmm...very interesting and quite a contrast to our Comanche tribe!
Please share interesting information from your research so far.
1. Boys wore a strap around the front and back. 2. Hopi can mean good , peaceful and wise. 3.in 1540 the Spanish explorer Pedroer Tovar was to meet the Hopi and they told them to believe in Christianity.
In 1540 Spanish explorer Pedro De Tovar was the first person to meet the Hopi. The Spanish tried to convert the Hopi and other Pueblo tribes to Christianity but the Hopi refused. So Hopi joined forces with the Pueblo tribe and led to the Pueblo revolt war. Hopi means peaceful. The Hopi's main crop is corn. In the 1800s Navajo tribe tried to take over Hopi lands. President Chester Arthur made a Navajo-Hopi act settlement. It was supposed to stop Navajo attacking Hopi. Today Hopi and Navajo tribes still do not agree who should use the land.
The hopi ate a lot of different foods. Some of these foods are...corn, melons, fruit, beans, piki(a type of bread), berries, rabbits, squash, elk, deer, and antelope and those are only a few of the hopi foods.Their homes were plastered in and out with clay,and they were built on a mesa.The women wore their hair straight or in braids. The men wore buckskin loin cloths. The hopi were divided into about 34 clans. Four is an important number in the hopi tribe. The women owned the houses and land.A kiva is an underground place.The homes were built around a kiisonvi. bye, I will see you in class tomorrow.
The Hopi people have a farming season they are selasbrated with dances such as the corn dance. The Hopi people are one of the only tribes to grow cotton. Hopi men wore cotton shirts and pants. Hopi women wore black cotton dresses. The Hopi homes are 2 to 3 stories high. The walls are plastered inside and outside with natural clay. The hopi people grew corn and squash. Spanish brought wheat, onions, new fruits,chilies and mutton (sheep meat).
