24. Conclusion -HopiThe environment each tribe lived in, played a
big role in shaping their culture.
The Hopi lived in a harsh environment with few
resources. It was a challenge to live and there
were not many tribes that choose to live in this
area. This made the tribe value community and
sharing. They had to work together to survive.
This is reflected in their homes, where they all
lived together in pueblos. They raised crops
together as a group. They were peaceful and
traded with other tribes to get the things they
needed.
25. Conclusion - Fox
The Fox tribe lived in an area that had many
desirable resources, that other people wanted.
This caused them to be less trustful and more
aggressive. You can see this reflected in their
lifestyle. The Fox built individual houses, rather
than shared housing like the Hopi. They lived
more separate lives. They had individual small
gardens rather than large community fields.
They elected a war chief and had an army to
fight the many people that raided them and tried
to take their things.
26. Which Would I Choose?
If I had to choose, I would live with the Hopi
tribe. The Fox tribe has more food and
resources but their lives were much more
violent. Although the daily life of the Hopi was
more difficult, I would enjoy the way they work
and live together.
