Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1996</ref> who possibly took the name from the Tewa language's original word, "navahu" meaning ‘fields adjoining an arroyo.’<ref>"Navajo" ''New Oxford American Dicionary'' Apple Computer, 2005.</ref> The '''[[Navajo Nation|Navajo Nation's]]''' reservation encompasses the [[Four Corners (United States)|Four Corners region]] of northern Arizona, southern Utah, and northern New Mexico, over 16 million acres (65,000 km²). The word ''Navajo'' also refers to the '''[[Navajo language]]'''. |
