I actually saw a documentary on them. The Japanese kept cracking all the codes the Americans used on their radios, so then they went to native american tribes and found the Navajo tribe. Since it was a small tribe, only a few hundred to a thousand people spoke the language so they were perfect. If you look on the picture of the marines raising the flag on Iwo Jima, i believe the guy reaching for the flag was a Navajo code talker.

The Navajo and Hopi are modern people who both live in the American Southwest but are very different in many ways. They speak completely unrelated languages for example. We don't know what the Anasazi spoke. Probably several languages in different families. The Navajo have borrowed some ideas from the Hopi. The ancient Hopi lived at the same time as the now gone Anasazi, shared many cultural traits and probably some of the Hopi clans are descended from Anasazi groups. Some Navajo clans are probably from Anasazi groups too. As a whole it is very hard to say what they did and do that is "unusual". That depends on what you think is usual.
