Scalping was not a traditional practice of the Navajo people; it was more commonly associated with other Indigenous groups in North America. The Navajo have a rich cultural heritage focused on community, spirituality, and resilience. Historical conflicts often led to violence and misunderstandings, but it is important to recognize that such practices were not representative of their core values or beliefs. The portrayal of the Navajo as scalpers is a stereotype that oversimplifies their complex history.
