What happened to the Hopi tribe?
The Hopi live where, as far as anyone knows, they have always lived, in what is now northern Arizona. Traditional belief and oral history says they have lived there since the end of their tribal migrations to the four directions and the gathering of the clans at this spot. Oral history says this place was chosen because it was difficult to live here and it would keep them living the correct way. They believe that living here maintains the rest of the world.
Archeology says they have lived in the same area for at least 1100 years.
There are about 18,000-20,000 Hopi today which is about what the population was at first contact with the Spanish. Population declined mainly due to European diseases until the end of the 1800s and then started to increase.
The Hopi are very lucky not to have experienced the worst of colonization by the Spanish, Mexican and the Americans.
They forced and killed the small Spanish presence out during the Pueblo revolt of 1680 and again at Awatovi in 1700.
The Mexican government never entered their area.
The Americans took over in 1848 but didn't really have much of a active presence until around 1890 -1900. By the mid 20th century the worst of the American practices were starting to end.

What was the southwest desert shelters?
The Navajo (Dine') people lived in Hogans ( hooghan, in Navajo). Today the navajo mostly live in American style houses but many people still have a hooghan for ceremonies or for sort of a guest house. Some older or rural people still live in one.
A hogan must have a door that faces east for the sun and no opening to the north. There are male ( pointed stick top)and female ( round tops) hogans. The female ones are the most common for people to live in over the last 100 years. They are cool in the summer and warm in the winter. When it was too hot in the summer people stayed in shade shelters nearby. Today there is usually a wood stove in the center, in the old days there was a fire and a smoke hole. It should be built and blessed in certain ritually prescribed ways. It is said that First Man made the first hogan. It should have a dirt floor or connection to the earth, and four opes for each direction. The walls were made of wood poles and the roof often corbeled. The whole thing or just the roof was covered in dirt for insulation. Today some are made with American construction and materials. Almost every part and area in a hogan has ritual meaning as well.
Other people such as the Hopi or Zuni or Taos or Acoma lived in very different shelters now called pueblos. Some of these are thought to be the longest continuously inhabited towns in north america. At least 800 to 1000 years. They are multistory apartment style villages made of stone and mud plaster. Traditinaly the entrances were often on the roof with ladders down to the rooms. The flat roofs were used and living and storage areas.
Other people lived other ways. The people in Chaco lived in much bigger versions of the modern style pueblos. The Ho'hokam lived in semi underground dwellings near large canals with irrigated farm land. Some Apache lived in tepees and others in oval wickups, a wood and brush structure. The Ute lived in tepees. The Paiute in brush dwellings. The Havasupai had winter and summer homes. The Yavapai and Hualapai had shelters similar to wickiups.
What type of houses did the southwest native Americans live in?

Is the Hopi a neighbor of the Iroquois tribe?
Not geographically, the Hopi are located in the American Southwest, New Mexico area, and the Iroquois are in the Northeast. However, there does seem to be a relationship between them. One belief is that the Iroquois originated in the southwest and migrated east and northward. There are some similarities between Iroquois cultures and the Hopi and I've heard elders refer to the Hopi as their relatives.
Also it is not the 'Iroquois tribe.' Iroquois is mostly a language group divided between Northern Iroquois and Southern Iroqouis: Northern Iroquois consisting of the well known Haudenosaunee (Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, Tuscarora) among many other nations in Pennsylvania and Canada along Lake Ontario and the Southern Iroqouis consisting of the Cherokee and other nations.

Why did the hopi and pueblo use mud bricks to build their homes?
That was the building material that was available to them.
The Hopi people did not "end". There are about 20,000 Hopi people. About 7,000 live on the Hopi Nation in what is now northern Arizona in 12 villages on First, Second and Third Mesa. They have lived there for at least 1100 years. They still speak Hopi and practice traditional religion.
A sipapuni (sometimes "sipapu") is a "place of emergence" in the creation myths of a number of indigenous American peoples ("Indians"), specifically the region now known as the southwest United States (Arizona, New Mexico, the Grand Canyon). These tribes include the Zuni, Hopi, and Navajo.
A sipapuni can be literal indentation in the earth, perhaps created through a variety of geological processes, an artificial hole in a ritual space (a "kiva"), or simply a mythological idea. In the myths, a sipapuni is also a "hole in the sky". (The "sky" is viewed as a hard shell.) Proto-human entities move from realms of darkness or chaos through this hole, to escape to a "higher" world. In one myth, these entities are threatened by a great flood on all sides, and fly through a hole revealed to them by another being. Typically, the beings move through three worlds until they arrive at the fourth world, where they become human beings.
So the sipapuni allows humans to come "out" of the ground into the world of sunlight and human civilization.
