The word "Navajo" comes from a Spanish adaptation of the Tewa Pueblo word navahu'u, meaning "farm fields in the valley." They were called Apache de Nabajo meaning "the apache group that farms". Navajo are cousins of the Apache. Some of the words are still similar between the two. Tewa are a neighboring Pueblo indian group. Dine' means "people"
They had different religions, languages, types of government, and food.
Anasazi is from a Navajo word meaning ancestors of enemies or strangers (not Navajo). Most modern Pueblo people who are their descendants prefer Ancestral or Ancient Pueblo peoples. The Hopi prefer Hisatsinom.
It is thought that they adopted and vastly elaborated on surrounding Pueblo people's weaving technology. Among the Navajo the women weave and among the Hopi the men weave. The pottery is not really like Pueblo pottery and not as elaborate and typically not decorated. Perhaps they got the idea from the Pueblo people but it is not clear. They have some Pueblo elements in the archeological record. The Navajo say that Spider Woman taught them weaving.
