The Yaqui, Hiaki, or Yoeme, are an Indigenous people of Mexico and Native American tribe, who speak the Yaqui language, a Uto-Aztecan language.[2]
Their primary homelands are in Río Yaqui valley[4] in the northwestern Mexican state of Sonora.[1] Today, there are eight Yaqui Pueblos in Sonora.[4][1]
Some Yaqui fled state violence to settle in Arizona.[1] They formed the Pascua Yaqui Tribe of Arizona,[4][1] based in Tucson, Arizona, which is the only federally recognized Yaqui tribe in the United States.[5]
Many Yaqui in Mexico live on reserved land in the state of Sonora. Others live in Sinaloa[2] and other regions, forming neighborhoods in various cities. Individual Yaqui and people of Yaqui descent live elsewhere in Mexico and the United States.
