Yavapai are an indigenous people in Arizona. Historically the Yavapai were divided into four geographical bands that considered themselves separate peoples: the Ɖo:lkabaya or Western Yavapai the Yavbe’ or Northwestern Yavapai the Guwevkabaya or Southeastern Yavapai and Wi:pukba or Northeastern Yavapai – Verde Valley Yavapai. Another Yavapai band was the Mađqwadabaya or Desert People and is believed to have mixed with the Mojave people and Quechan people and no longer exists.
