Hupa Village Sites

---

The Hoopa Valley is bisected North to South by the Trinty River. Along the river the Hupa People constructed and occupied several village sites that still remain to this day. These villages were comprised of several Xontahs (Homes) that housed the various members of the families. The various villages were generally very close-knit, and strived to uphold the necessary relationships to maintain the villages needs. Several of these villages have, located within them, sacred ceremonial sites. These sites are sacred to the Hupa People for prayer, meditation, and overall world healing ceremonies. Today these villages are delineated by fields or districts. The 7 main districts are each represented by a councilmember who serves on the Hoopa Valley Tribal Council.
