FDI - Havasupai

The Havasupai were a small sedentary hunter/farmer tribe. They probably separated from the Hualapai about A.D.1200. They occupied Cataract Canyon on the south side of the Grand Canyon. They share the Pai sub-culture with the Hualapai and Yavapai of Arizona, and the Paipai of Mexico. The isolation of living in the Grand Canyon mitigated the negative effect of the White influx. They remain in their aboriginal territory today.
