Hopi Reservation

Most of this vast Reservation is really a series of land additions to Hopi Reservation. What is considered Navajo land is really Hopi land. Before non Hopi People settled on Hopi land an agreement or treaty was first agreed to. It recognized Hopi land and willingness of Hopi leaders to allow non Hopi People to settle on their land. Hopi Reservation was first established before non Hopi People were set aside land additions. At Kansas, a treaty was signed between Ojibwa leaders and American leaders on June 1, 1868. Per treaty agreements, Ojibwa's of Kansas were allowed to migrate west to Hopi land and settle. Hopi Reservation already existed in 1868. On March 2, 1868, Kit Carson Treaty established a vast Reservation. It's location was almost all of western Colorado down to Arizona and New Mexico. It was set aside for Ute People. Hopi People are Ute! Maps from 1867 and 1868 depict the vast Ute Reservation. Southern portion of Ute Reservation is Hopi Reservation. It's not Navajo Reservation. Remember March 2, 1868's Treaty established a vast Ute Reservation. It's real location was probably all of east Utah and not most of west Colorado. Will name the Ute Reservation Uncompahgre Ute Reservation which was adjacent to Uintah Valley Ute Reservation. Notice the river adjacent to Uintah Valley Reservations east boundary and south boundary? That's Green River. Uncompahgre Reservation was set aside adjacent to and east of Green River and Colorado River to the Arizona border! Colorado was it's east boundary. It was not set aside in the 1870's. It was created on on March 2, 1868. Per June 1, 1868's Treaty Agreements at Kansas, Ojibwa's and other tribes were allowed to migrate west to Uncompahgre Reservation. Hopi Reservation is it's southern portion. It's located entirely in Arizona. You first have to align Ute Reservation in Utah. That places Hopi Reservation where it is now! What that indicates is the first Navajo land addition to Hopi Reservation is located at extreme southeast Utah. Colorado River and San Juan River is the land additions north boundary. Arizona it's south boundary and Colorado it's east boundary. The entire west portion of Navajo Reservation at Arizona, from a line south of where Colorado River merges with San Juan River at Utah, became land additions to Hopi Reservation. West boundary of Hopi Reservation is the confluence of Colorado River and San Juan River. North boundary of Hopi Reservation is the Arizona/Utah border. East boundary of Hopi Reservation is it's current east boundary. South boundary of Hopi Reservation is it's current south boundary. And Hopi Reservation is surrounded by the land additions!

Navajo People will reject this information. They don't even know who they are! They've forgotten about Kansas where they lived before migrating west. Before they lived at Kansas, they lived throughout Ohio Valley and Michigan and Wisconsin. Ojibwa's had already migrated to Arizona and New Mexico at least 100 years earlier if not 200 years. Whites have so violated their history and the history of other tribes, they'd beat you up if you told them they were Ojibwa. Hopi People have strongly kept their tribal identity alive. They are an admixture of Ojibwa and non Ojibwa natives. Latin's never subjugated them! And Hopi leaders were very willing to allow other natives to settle on their land.

A series of land additions to Hopi Reservation followed the first land addition on June 1, 1868. Land additions followed in 1878 after vast Ute Reservation (aka Uncompahgre Reservation) was eradicated. Then the land addition of 1880 which includes 1868's bogus land addition at Arizona and New Mexico. Another land addition in 1882. It was not the establishment of Hopi Reservation. We know Hopi Reservation was created on March 2, 1868. An 1884 land addition adjacent to and west of Hopi Reservation. And a small land addition in 1886. The land additions from 1878 to 1886 were for natives from Ute Reservation (aka Uncompahgre Reservation). Land additions then stopped in 1886. However, up at Montana Ojibwa People were causing all kinds of problems. Ojibwa leaders refused to cede their Reservations. American leaders became so upset they first targeted the Ojibwa Reservation adjacent to Great Falls and Helena. Within a two month period during summer 1896, they rounded up 1,000's of Montana Ojibwa's and sent them to Great Falls to relocate them elsewhere. Canada agreed to accept most of them yet many if not most, returned to their native Montana. In 1900 and 1901, other land additions to Hopi Reservation were agreed to. It's adjacent to Hopi Reservation on the east and 1884's land addition on the north and extends south to the south boundary of Navajo Reservation. Another land addition to Hopi Reservation followed in 1905. Montana Ojibwa's continued to refuse to cede Reservations. In 1906 and 1907, American leaders targeted Lemhi Reservation (nearly all is located at southwest Montana) and sent many to 1907's land additions at Arizona and New Mexico. Other land additions followed in 1913, 1917, 1930 and 1933. Chief Rocky Boy negotiated to withdraw Ojibwa Soldiers from Mexico's Civil War during 1912 and 1913. It had nothing to do with the European Conflict. He demanded that 1907's land additions be returned. They were and other Ojibwa Reservations were returned and created for chief Rocky Boys Ojibwa Subjects after chief Rocky Boy agreed to withdraw Ojibwa Soldiers from Mexico's Civil War.

Extreme caution must be used pertaining to the 1934 land additions. It's known that American leaders sent many Japanese Americans to interment or detention camps at Navajo Reservation. Japan had long been an ally of whites including the United States. Japan joined Europeans during their war against China. What followed during World War II was an attempt to conquer China yet it failed. Long thought of as code talkers, you must face reality and consider Japanese Americans as the infamous code talkers. It needs to be investigated! However, during the early and mid 1930's, Montana Ojibwa's were continuing to bother American leaders who agreed to find land for them. It's not known how many Montana Ojibwa's who were considered landless yet lived in their own villages during the 1930's. As many as 5,000 Montana Ojibwa's were probably landless in the 1930's. It's likely the two 1934 land additions to Hopi Reservation were for many of them! Montana Ojibwa's continued to be a problem up to the 1960's. There's even one Ojibwa landless village adjacent to Great Falls now. That's infamous Hill 57. Only 10 to 20 Ojibwa's live there!

After 1907's land additions to Hopi Reservation, American leaders were quick to allot land and send the surplus land to public domain. However, that changed after Mexico's Civil War erupted in 1910. Chief Rocky Boys power extended to Mexico. It was chief Rocky Boy who settled Mexico's Civil War. During 1912 and 1913, chief Rocky Boy negotiated with American leaders about withdrawing Ojibwa Soldiers from Mexico's Civil War. He reached agreements with American leaders in which new Ojibwa Reservations were created and old Ojibwa Reservations including chief Rocky Boys Reservation adjacent to Great Falls and Helena, Lemhi Reservation and 1907's land additions were returned. All of 1907's land additions land area is Reservation land belonging to Hopi Reservation. Much is located at New Mexico. It extends as far east as Jicarilla Reservation. Look on the land additions map for Original Navajo Reservation (1868). That's original Hopi Reservation. It must be located further west where Hopi Reservation (1882) and 1884 land addition are written. South boundary must be extended a few miles north. West boundary extends to the Utah border. And 1884's land addition is located entirely at Arizona and is much smaller. Hopi People must keep strong while the United States causes civil unrest among Hopi People and the natives sent to live on their land! Demographics below don't include Jicarilla Reservation, Ramah Reservation, Southern Ute Reservation, Ute Mountain Reservation and Zuni Reservation. If each was included the land area would increase to near or over 35,000 sq. mi.
