Item Description
"The Hopis was first published in 1995. To update and prepare the book for republication today, we have worked with Anita Polahla, a Hopi language and cultural consultant with master's degrees in public administration and educational leadership from Northern Arizona University and a member of the Tansy Mustard Clan from Sitsomovi, a village on the first First Mesa. We hope this book serves as an introduction to one of the first American Nations and that you will continue to explore Hopi history and culture by visiting the websites listed in the back of the book."-- [Page 2].
