Navaho Indian Bands, Gens and Clans

Many tribes have sub-tribes, bands, gens, clans and phratry.  Often very little information is known or they no longer exist.  We have included them here to provide more information about the tribes.

  • Bithani (folded arms). A Navaho clan.
  • Dsihlthani (brow of the mountain). A Navaho clan.
  • Dsihltlani (base of the mountain). A Navaho clan.
