Hopi Religion The author gratefully acknowledges the assistance of Alice Schlegel in the preparation of this chapter. Alice Schlegel, a professor of anthropology at the University of Arizona, has maintained contacts among the Hopi for over twenty years and has written extensively on gender aspects of Hopi society and religion as well as comparative studies of adolescence. The sources for the data on sex/gender aspects of Hopi culture and religion are primarily the works of Alice Schlegel; the interpretations are predominantly due to her insights; and quotations not otherwise noted are from her writings: “The Adolescent Socialization of the Hopi Girl ,” Ethnology 12 (1973): 440–462; “Hopi Joking and Castration Threats,” Linguistics and Anthropology: In Honor of C.F. Voegelin , ed. M. D. Kinkade , H. Hale , & O. Werner ( Lisse, Netherlands : Peter de Ridder Press, 1975): 521–529; “Male and Female in Hopi Thought and Action,” in Sexual Stratification: A Cross-Cultural View , ed. A. Schlegel ( New York : Columbia University Press, 1977): 245–269; “Sexual Antagonism Among the Sexually Egalitarian Hopi ,” Ethos 7 (1979): 124–141; “Hopi Gender Ideology of Female Superiority ,” Quarterly Journal of Ideology 8/4 (1984): 44–52; “Fathers, Daughters, and Kachina Dolls ,” European Review of Native American Studies 3/1 (1989): 7–10; “Gender Meanings: General and Specific,” in Beyond the Second Sex: New Directions in the Anthropology of Gender , ed. P. R. Sanday & R. G. Goodenough ( Philadelphia : University of Philadelphia Press, 1990): 23–41; and “The Two Aspects of Hopi Grandmotherhood” (manuscript). The data for most other aspects of Hopi religion are from the writings of Armin Geertz, as well as extensive personal conversations with him, for which the author is most grateful. Of Geertz’s many publications, the most relevant to this chapter are the following: “A Reed Pierced the Sky: Hopi Indian Cosmography on Third Mesa, Arizona,” Numen 31 (1984): 216–241; Hopi Indian Altar Iconography ( Leiden : E. J. Brill, 1987); with Michael Lomatuway’ma , Children of Cottonwood: Piety and Ceremonialism in Hopi Indian Puppetry ( Lincoln : University of Nebraska Press, 1987) (it is to be noted that the orthography for Hopi words are from this work); “Hopi Hermeneutics: Ritual Person Among the Hopi Indians of Arizona,” in Concepts of Person in Religion and Thought ( Berlin : de Gruyter, 1990): 309–335; and “Structural Elements in Uto-Aztecan Mythology: The Hopi Example” (manuscript). The material on ritual is in large part from Mischa Titiev , Old Oraibi: A Study of the Hopi Indians of Third Mesa ( Cambridge : Peabody Museum, 1944). For Maasaw, Ekkehart Malotki and Michael Lomatuway’ma , Maasaw: Profile of a Hopi God ( Lincoln : University of Nebraska Press, 1987) is important, as is Hamilton A. Tylor , Pueblo Gods and Myths ( Norman : University of Oklahoma Press, 1964) for deities in general. Also referred to for this chapter are Leo W. Simmons , ed., Sun Chief: The Autobiography of a Hopi Indian ( New Haven : Yale University Press, 1942) for a male perspective; and Tracy Pintchman , “Speculative Patterns in Hopi Cosmology ,” Studies in Religion 22 (1993): 351–364. The data on Papago religion is from Ruth M. Underhill , Papago Woman ( New York : Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1979). The analysis of Zuni culture is from John W. M. Whiting et al., “The Learning of Values,” in People of Rimrock: A Study of Values in Five Cultures , ed. Evon Vogt and Ethel M. Albert ( Cambridge : Harvard University Press, 1967): 83–125/107.
