Navajo Indians


They are supposedly Athabascan. However, an 1898 book about Mexico including Indian Languages of Mexico, has information indicating Apache and Navajo Indians are not Athabascan. Below are maps of Confederated Ute Reservation and Navajo Reservation which was a land addition to Confederated Ute Reservation and links to google earth photos of a Navajo Reservation town. Carefully investigate that second map. I drew it using google earth. Hopi Reservation almost aligns with it. According to Senor Don Antonio Garcia Cubas, Apachean is an independent language. He did not include their languages with Mexican-Opata which Americans renamed Uto-Aztecan. Cubas was sneaky however. He first listed Apache this way: Apache or Yavipai, Navajo, Mescalero, Llanero Lipan, ect. He did not list Apache including Navajo, as being Mexican-Opata yet he listed Yavipai as being Mexican-Opata or El Yuma branch of Mexican-Opata or Uto-Aztecan. His information is deceitful yet more reliable. Mexican Linguists had been studying Indian Languages within Mexico, for far longer than Americans and English had. It means Apache and Navajo Indians are Ute Indians. So are Hopi Indians. It also means Navajo Indians were civilized or originated from Anasazi Culture. After Italians and Spaniards invaded in late 16th century and early 17th century, many Pueblo Indians fled to mountainous regions that offered them protection from Italians. Hopi People were strong enough to prevent whites from subduing them. Hopi (aka Moqui) Language was listed as a dialect of Comanche-Shoshone. We know Shoshone People are Ojibway. Andrew Blackbird wrote in his 1887 book "History of the Ottawa and Chippewa Indians of Michigan," that Ojibway Language was extensively spoken among Shoshone People. Peter Jones who was a mid 19th century Ojibway author, wrote that Ojibway Language was spoken from Mississippi Rivers Headwaters (it's located in southwest Montana where Shoshone Ojibway's lived) to Red Rivers Headwaters. We have to list Navajo Indians and also Apache's, as being Hopi.



On June 1, 1868, a treaty was negotiated between Navajo Indians (aka Hopi) and American Representatives about a land addition to Confederated Ute Reservation which was created on March 2, 1868. This land addition to Confederated Ute Reservation was adjacent to it on it's south in Arizona. Ojibway leaders wanted land whites didn't. Western Colorado is nearly all mountainous yet has many areas with an abundance of farmland. Confederated Ute Reservation was set aside in eastern Utah where there was little available farmland and it is very arid or a desert. Though there's a dispute going on now between Hopi People and Navajo Indians, it's because of those land additions to Confederated Ute Reservation commencing in 1900 and contuining to 1934. Ojibway's from Montana and other States led by chief Rocky Boy, were relocated to Navajo Reservation and Ute's from Confederated Ute Reservation were also forced to relocate to Navajo Reservation. That is how their dispute originated. Navajo Reservation is really Confederated Ute Reservation. Today, Navajo Indians (they are really Hopi or Ute or Ojibway or mixed) have a population of over 300,000. They don't know who they are. Hopi People know who they are yet this dispute is annoying. They don't want to fued among themselves in this time we live in. Navajo's don't know who they are and will become extremely violent if told they are not Navajo. Ojibway People and Hopi People must avoid them. Navajo People have accepted their demise.
