Marvis Victor of Yavapai-Apache Nation performs a traditional Apache song, reflecting the strong history, heritage and legacy of the Yavapai-Apache Nation.
Just have to say i really love this performance i can feel the music great job who ever is singing and if your wondering i listen to this everyday and enjoy it!:)
Because Fort McDowell is Yavapai... North of phoenix are the Yavapai Apache, Camp Verde Area.. All in all i'm sure they are related in a way especially with dances and such.. im no expert.. long ago there used to be Mo'paches, Mojave Apaches but they have died out also known as the Desert People.. I heard of this long ago when I was younger, and found out that one of my great aunts was the last of these people.. But she has passed on many years ago.. Also I believe long long ago the Yavapai ancestors intermarried and adopted other's cultures.. now days they do take part in Apache ways, and also with the Bird dancing and singing of the People Along The River(Colorado River).. Pipa Aha Macav, the Mojave.. ((The Yavapai refers to themselves as Wipuhk’a’bah and speak the Yuman language, while the Apache refer to themselves as Dil’zhe’e and speak the Athabaskan language.))
Yes, most of fort mcdowell is yavapai. And it's a fact that the yavapai & apache have been together forever that the name apache has been stuck with them. I'm Yavapai myself with Apache blood & from what I was told that both tribes shared each other's cultures, customs, traditions, resources, fought battles together, raided together, intermarried, lived in one another's territories, etc. Sorry if this response was way later.
@@WaLeMaBiRdZ Yes, from what I was told too that Yavapais & Mojaves were close friends that shared culture & tradition. They were also war allies too, it was common for Yavapai & Mojave war parties to back each other up when it came to fighting against the Maricopa (a blood cousin to both the Yavapai & Mojave) and the Pima.
That drum is humming and hitting the right tone to let the words sink into the mind in perfect harmony. Beautiful tone in voice and drum.

Why is it that on Fort McDowell Rez they say, "where not Apache, we're Yavapai" ?

Because they're yavapai, they just been associated with Apaches for so long. That the name just stuck.
