The Hopi, who occupy an area in the high desert plateaus of the Southwest, are one of the best known Native American tribes. They have a rich mythological cycle about their ascent from a world deep inside the earth.


Traditions of the Hopi by H.R. Voth, Field Columbian Museum Anthropogical Publication Vol. VIII. [1905].
Newly reformatted, this is a treasure trove of Hopi myth and legend.

Truth of a Hopi by Edmund Nequatewa, [1936, copyright not renewed]
This is an excellent account of Hopi myth, legend, and history, written by a Hopi, from a Hopi viewpoint.


If you are interested in the Hopi and their spiritual traditions, we recommend Book of the Hopi, by Frank Waters (ISBN 0140045279).
