The Hopi Reservation

The Hopi Reservation is a designated area in northeastern Arizona where the Hopi Tribe, a Native American community, resides. It covers about 1.5 million acres and is primarily situated on mesas, elevated landforms that provide natural protection. The Hopi people have maintained their cultural traditions, language, and spiritual practices for centuries. The reservation functions as both a homeland and a governance center, where tribal leaders oversee community affairs, land use, and cultural preservation. It is a distinct sovereign territory that emphasizes the Hopi’s ongoing connection to their land, history, and identity.
