This 1899 image shows an ancient Moqui village that was recently discovered. Hopi refers to a group of the Pueblo, the name given by the Spanish to the sedentary Native Americans who loved in stone or adobe communal houses in what is now the southwestern United States. The Hopi were formerly called Moki or Moqui. They speak the Hopi language. They occupy several mesa villages in northeastern Arizona and in 1990 numbered close to 12,000.
