Abstract

The historic southwestern homeland of the Navajo included the country west of the Chama river in northern New Mexico. To the north of them were the Utes, a migratory hunting and gathering peoples, living in widely scattered family bands; to the east along the Rio Grande valley were various sedentary agricultural pueblo peoples. When the Navajo first arrived in the Southwest they were probably a migratory hunting peoples, but their association with a sedentary population and the adoption of the techniques of cultivation must have produced marked changes in their economy.
