The Hupa (also known as Hoopa) are an Athabaskan tribe which inhabit northwestern California. Hupa are Native North Americans whose language belongs to the Athabascan linguistic stock. They believe that they lived in the Hoopa Valley for over 400,000 years, but their language suggests that they are relatively recent immigrants from what is now western Canada.
