Hopi[edit]

Hi Leonard,

"Federally employed" Navajos are not generally considered to be either impeccable references or worthy of paraphrasing as "common knowledge" particlulary with regard to anything Hopi. If you were as familiar with Hopi as you wish to appear, you would know that.

It would be the better part of valor for you to concede that you do not know everything about everything, moreover your professed knowledge in matters Hopi is clearly superficial at best. Were it not for an apparent very large ego, you might be honest enough to agree that you are not the last word on the subject.

Please note that I make no claim of expertese on this or any other subject of my edits. The cause of your problem appears to me to be my restoration of your deletion of an entire block of text, for which you provided neither detailed commentary or discussion. The two adjacent paragraphs involved at the time of your deletion were as follows:

According to Hopi people, the Hopi are a gathering of many separate people representing tribes from distant areas, now identifying culturally as one people. With impact of the Athabascan migrations from Canada (forming the modern Navajo nation) ending as late as the 15th century the Hopi moved from original village locations at the bottoms of mesas to the tops where these villages could be defended. Popularly these are known as First, Second and Third Mesas due to their order of Spanish encounter. In contrast, the Navajo prefer to live in small family groups now widely distributed across North-Eastern Arizona, South-Eastern Utah, Southwestern Colorado and Northwestern New Mexico. The Hopi have been towns dwellers for many centuries (in time coming of Spaniards existed 9 of them - Sikyatki, Koechaptevela, Kisakovi, Sichomovi, Mishongnovi, Shipaulovi, Shungopavi, Oraibi and Awatobi). The Hopi village of Old Oraibi, located on Third Mesa and founded about the year 1100,is the oldest continuously occupied settlement in the United States. Some aspects of the Hopi culture are in common with those of the Tewa puebloan culture however readers are warned that strictly abiding by non-Hopi anthropological writings remain too constricting across all "Puebloan" tribes.

The Hopi reservation is surrounded by the Navajo reservation. While traditionally the Hopi and the Navaho have considered each other to be "enemies" in various ways they have recently become more cooperative in actions involving environmental, Bureau of Indian Affairs, and economic issues, most notably in political and contractual actions to restrict the withdrawal of groundwater by outside entities, particularly by coal extractors for use in coal slurry transport.

In communications with other editors your ad hominem argument would generally be considered inappropriate (I do not consider it an insult as I am a Leo, although I consider all of my opinions to be open to correction). In the interest of clarity, lets look at just what you had block deleted. (Note that this section represents the efforts of a number of editors and my contributions amount to only a portion of the text.)

Statements by licensed guides in in several locations, combined with personal observation. There is no such thing as a Navajo pueblo, although there are modern settlements created by 19th and 20th century non-native settlement (e.g. Tuba City) that have become modern centers of Navaho administrative organization, with consequent native settlement.

Certain archeological evidence suggest that Oraibi is much older that this - Reference?
