About this map

The villages of Hotevilla and Bacavi anchor this high-desert landscape on the Hopi Indian Reservation, where cultural history is etched into the topography. Situated atop the prominent Third Mesa, these settlements overlook a terrain defined by deep-cut washes and sacred springs, most notably Hotevilla Spring. The proximity of the ancient village of Oraibi and the Tug-of-War Historical Marker indicates a region with deep temporal roots, where traditional Hopi life continues alongside infrastructure like the Siwukva Corral and various water tanks. The land drops away toward the Dinnebito Wash to the northwest, revealing a complex network of canyons and bluffs such as Oraibi Butte and Hoonawpa. This mapping shows the intersection of modern reservation life with enduring landmarks, from the Sewage Disposal Ponds to the high points of Yantukyaovi Northeast.
