The Hupa (Yurok: Huep'oola' / Huep'oolaa 'Hupa people'[3]) are a Native American people of the Athabaskan-speaking ethnolinguistic group in northwestern California. Their endonym is dining’xine:wh for Hupa-language speakers in general, and na:tinixwe for residents of Hoopa Valley,[4] also spelled Natinook-wa, meaning "People of the Place Where the Trails Return".[2] The Karuk name for them is Kishákeevar / Kishakeevra ("Hupa (Trinity River) People", from kishákeevar-sav = "Hupa River, i.e. Trinity River").[3] The majority of the tribe is enrolled in the federally recognized Hoopa Valley Tribe.
