Funny. The neighboring Apache Tribe to the Hopi have a language almost identical to the tribes in Alaska.
Check out the map at this link of the Athabaskan language

Thanks for the link.
The Athabascan speakers moved south from the boreal forest less than one thousand years ago, supposedly.
The first Canadian snowbirds played rough.
The way I understand it, the Navajo (related group) also speak the language and the tribes north actually migrated from the south in relatively recent times.
