There are many beautiful weavers, jewelers, potters, painters and writers and singers. There are still some traditional people who herd sheep and goats, and grow corn, squash and beans.

The Navajo people are a very large and diverse tribe. There are 300,000 enrolled members. Most who live on the Navajo Nation today live in regular "american " style homes. Some are HUD built some self built. Some live in apartments if they have a job that provides one. Some live in trailers and double wides becuase it is very hard to get home loans when property is owned collectively by the tribe not individually. Some still live is a hogan( or have one on their property) which is a wonderfully well adapted type of home for the environment. There is a housing shortage. There is almost no housing market on the Navajo Nation.

Death is not a good thing to the Navajo and the proper length of a human life is said to be 102 years. 25 1/4 years for each of the four parts. There is not a good day to die, and there is no Navajo afterlife. Living now into long life according to hózhǫ́ with proper k'e (relations) is what is important. The Navajo are not Lakota.
They do today! And with grilled mutton and roast green chile they are delicious. But, no they did not in the past. Fry bread is made from wheat flour. It is thought they began to use it during their 4 year internment in Bosque Redondo in 1864. Before that the Navajo used corn that the grew to make vaious breads and cakes and mush. They did not make anything like a Navajo taco then.
The proper adjective form for Navajo is Navajo, as in Navajo Nation, Navajo people, Navajo history, Navajo art, etc. An example sentence: We visited the Navajo display at the museum to see the Navajo jewelry.
