The Hopi are henotheistic, meaning they believe in one overall god who created lesser gods (however, this is highly debated with some researchers saying they added the main god when the Christian settlers arrived and tried to convert them). The Hopi worship their their main god, Tawa the Creator (or Sun Spirit), as well as Spider Grandmother, who saved their ancestors from the end of the Third World. They also worship over 400 Kachinas, which are spiritual beings that represent things in the real world. The Hopi have a beautiful belief system, with amazing stories and deities, that goes much deeper than this small answer and is definitely worth researching.

Where do Native Americans get their hunting grounds from?
I am not sure if the answer is right but I think the Native Americans get their hunting grounds from their leaders or the "gods" gave it to them. The Native Americans believed that the land doesn't belong to anyone besides the "gods".
