We Scots 🏴 have utter respect for these people we have fought our own battles against conquest for 1000 years. It makes us who we are warriors renowned around the world. The Navajo will never be forgotten 🤞🏴
The Navaho are not gone they are in fact one of the most popular Native Americans in America to day. Don't know why this video talks as if the Navaho are gone it is not true .

@@blackbetsy59 I know there are a few I follow on You Tube they are very wise good people...I'm Scottish too and I love the Di Ne.
You failed to mention that They are Hard Workers ! ( I worked in the Oilfield with many Navajo in Cortez Co and Utah )
Yes, that is true, but the Navajo people are not good in relationships, and I would say most of them are cheaters.
They are beautiful and handsome people ,A blessing to this earth 🌅🙏🏼🥰
The biggest crush I ever had was on a Navajo girl. Thought she was thai at first, just really tall.
We are still here✊🏽🪶 Thank you for recognizing our ways. Just an “fyi” we are the Diné people. The word Navajo was given to us by Spanish colonizers. Thank you! Creator bless you all
I spent last summer in Gallup New Mexico last year, a majority Navajo city. I came to love and respect their beautiful people and culture.
Yá'át 'ééh ! I have Navajo friends, and the Navajo are so amazing. I know their language and many other native people's languages.
20 years ago , I went out to the 4Corners area , on the way , I passed a car on the side of the road. About 2 miles further on there was a older Indian man & a boy , caring a gas can. I stopped, asked if they needed a ride.Yes, they had run out of gas. It seemed like 12 to 15 miles, till we got to a place that they could get gas. The Grandfather said would catch a ride back . They thanked me.
The Long Walk of the Navajo, also called the Long Walk to Bosque Redondo (Navajo: Hwéeldi), was the 1864 deportation and attempted ethnic cleansing of the Navajo people by the United States federal government. Navajos were forced to walk from their land in what is now Arizona to eastern New Mexico. Some 53 different forced marches occurred between August 1864 and the end of 1866. Some anthropologists claim that the "collective trauma of the Long Walk...is critical to contemporary Navajos' sense of identity as a people". Credit: Wikipedia
My great great grandmother my dad’s grandmother and was a little girl when she walk with her parents. But her dad refused to walk more so soldiers just killed him on way to Fort Sunmer. 😢
That was not the end of it. The Navajo, like many native nations, were forced to release their children to distant boarding schools from the late 19th century to the late 20th century.
Thanks for your video but 3-minutes is not enough time to explain the beautiful Navajo people and their culture.
Yes very true! Our channel aims to provide introductions to different topics to peak interest for further investigation, but we may do a longer segment on the Navajo in the future 😏
@@twominutehistory I was going to say the same thing as Sandra Vega ... You answered ... Thank you
What this video calls "the concept of Hozzo" is a mispronunciation. It is pronounced Hozyo but it is spelled Hozho, with both letter "O"s being pronounced like the O in the word "note". It means balance and beauty.
The Navajo originated from the Turkic 🧿 tribes of Central-Asia. They migrated to Siberia & Eastern-Asia, and across the Bering Strait into North America.
They practice the Shamanistic religion/faith also shared by the original Turkic peoples of Central-Asia.
The Navajo also faced predation from Apaches, who themselves were displaced by Comanches.
We also fought with the southern ute tribes, the apache while we fought occasionally we did not have as much a problem with them as we did with the ute.
Thank You 👍👍👍👍👍
I think you meant to say, who are the Navajo. There are around 200,000 living today.
Thank you for your comment! Yes, the Navajo are still living today. We only meant "were" in the historical sense, but will make this update 🙂
@Unintentional Failure the other speakers are also people not in the navajo tribe. So it does make sense that there would be more speakers.
@Unintentional Failure right but that doesn't mean there aren't speakers. The amount of fluent speakers is low but the language is still alive. And your just counting "fluent" speakers, there are more people learning to speak it as a whole.
Let us not forget the World War II code talkers.
I think the last I heard we are down to three still living. Something that is often left unsaid is that they each had a Marine accompanying them to ensure they were not captured alive. My father was a radar tech, trained on the secret SHF ranging radar used on US warships in WW2; he had a watcher as well. He described the once or twice weekly random drills: the Marine would command "drop" (or "down" - I don't recall). Dad would fall to his knees and the Marine would put his .45 to the base of his skull. The Code Talkers lived such an existence.
A very encyclopedic video from someone who has never, ever met a Navajo. Hozhogo Na Showdo.
Thank you! We try our best to provide as much detail as possible in a 2 minute video 😁
who 'were' we like we are not still around we are here strong alive and still here

Hey im navajo, 🤗
RESPECT 🦅🪶🐎🦬
You didn't mention our Navajo casinos ha ha ha.
Navajo also came from north and displaced the Apache peoples, and were enemies of the Ute, Hopi, and Zuni
@@bryanjames7528 Their languages are very similar. A Navajo I worked with said he could loosely follow Apache speech.
Bring forth history and facts. Hopi have been in these lands dating bk to 700 AD and possibly further. History is that the government gave Hopi lands to navajo who descended from up north. History is that Navajo are not indigenous this area. The government gave our lands away and today disputes of the LCR hit us. Land disputes. There was an article written about our Hopi traditions with Golden Eagles that navajo know nothing about that we have been doing for centuries. Today we deal with Navajo popularizing others culture and traditions and the outside world think it all comes from Navajo when it really doesn’t. Tee pees are homes of planes Natives. Sweats are also a plains tradition. Navajo wedding basket is a San Juan Southern Piute basket, sashes are from a Hopi qwewa - belt. Navajo National Monument is all Hopi traced. Palatki is it’s original name. Foods as well. This is what the world doesn’t get. To give recognition to where Navajo obtained these ways. Instead it is claimed as theirs. Bringing awareness is what this is about.
@@delliottk probably just like celebrating holidays, where did all that came from
Is there any Navajo swastika symbol tattoed on their body ?
Hitler made what was a sign of good luck into a great offense.the navajos call it the spinning log.
🙏🙏🙏🌎 Amen. Thank God I will always work hard and I will always respect the land. Thank God my chains are gone. I am greatful to understand that I will always honor my marriage and family . Thank God for the cross. The land will be restored 🙏🙏🙏
We are still alive. The Europeans were fierce killers but the Americans survived and triumphed in WW3.
Its Hozhó like ho-zho ❤
Indians are from India....
Nabajo
Koeran Language
나 봐요(na bwayo:Look at me)
We are Diné and not Indian.
not Navajo we are Dine'
Not "navajo"/ It'" DINE"!!!!
Seek Mark Charles
Never show ye'iis on your thumbnail. It is embarrassing to us and yourself.
Shame on you Kit
I hope the Navajo ppl realize their true origin
Alot of your ancestral practices stem from Nazarite practices
Your true roots are most likely of the tribe of Dan🙏🕯️
No mentions of Navajo descending from Athabaskan and that the reason they have the largest nation is because the government gave them Hopi lands. As they migrated south to Arizona they took over Hopi lands, took traditions from other tribes to call their own. Therefore they are not indigenous to the lands they call the Navajo nation.
Hopi are originally from the south. What is now present day Mexico. Hopi speak a Uto-Aztecan language which derives from the Aztecs. They are supposant descendants of the Ancestral Puebloans. Evidence shows they became a cannibal culture due to famine and drought.
@@zeph3122 that is again a lot of misinterpretation. Hopi have been here in these lands dating back to 700 AD. I know which video you watched saying that there is possible cannibalism. That is what happens when uneducated people make videos.
@@changelocation back in the day yes we traded and assisted them but in todays world this doesn’t exist. No acknowledgment of any of this and they claim to have been the first here and claim things from Hopi and other tribes to be theirs. This is never shared and brought to awareness.
@@delliottk Yes they are ignorant and place their own values never truely understanding what it means to be hopi.love and respect to hopiland.🙂
It is my understanding that the Navajo Nation receives billions of dollars annually through the Bureau of Indian Affairs. I was taught that the word Navajo is translated meaning scavenger,as they had no culture of their own, only that of other tribes.
That money does not go to us, just like the United States spending it doesn't go directly to the people. It gets spent on maintaining and improving the land. While we adopted many things from other tribes, many other tribes have also adopted things from each other as much as we did. We are not scavengers and we are our own people with our own complex language and culture.
We are not were,we still live
We have the Navajo to thank for serving as code talkers during WWII. They were able to communicate in the open because the Japanese were unable to translate the Navajo language.
Grate !!!!
Wrong... the navajo only entered the code talking in ww2.. in ww1 hopi and other tribes were already code talking. But because of the way the us government likes to use its stupid commie agendas this is what they want the general public to believe. But we natives know the truth. The navajo are a made tribe of asian like peoples who literally steal other native american tribes cultures and traditions... that is the real truth.
They were simply traitors to thier own people...and served the Jew Bankers who fabricated WARS for PROFIT.
Also the Cree
The Dine' ("Navajo" is a name they consider disrespectful, like calling anyone blonde a National Socialist) speak the Athabascan language, as do the Apache (that name directly translates to "Enemy", again, in another Tribal language, except the more aggressive Apache remain PROUD of that, and their word for People is Dene'). Just a note
