What is The second long walk : the Navajo-Hopi land dispute about?

''THE SECOND LONG WALK'' covers the tragic conflict between two tribes of American Indians who inhabit the northeast quarter of Arizona. Some 8,000 Hopis live on a small reservation surrounded by the much larger reservation of an estimated 150,000 Navajos. The Hopis are farmers by tradition and, until recently, lived in medieval-looking stone villages built, for reasons of defense, on the tops of cliff-rimmed mesas. According to their own mythology, the Hopis have been here forever; according to anthropological research, they have lived here for at least 700 years. The Navajos, according to anthropological lore, are relatively recent arrivals on the North American continent (like the rest of us). They came roving down from the north in small, nomadic bands, a hunting, gathering and raiding society, and arrived in what is now Arizona about 500 years ago, not long before the Spanish. Adaptable and relentlessly expansionistic, they acquired horses, sheep, goats and the arts of silversmith
