Mark and the rest of the list: Since I live in Arizona, a state in the United States, we have been subject to a long and very bitter lawsuit between the Hopi and 'Navajo' Native American Nations (they do have separate legal status, their own police forces and governments) because of the claims by the Hopi of land stealing. Also, Navajo has been reported to be the Hopi name for land stealer. Denae is the name that the Navajo use of themselves. I don't know what this word stands for.
I don't know if this is reflected in Wikipedia, but that might be a good place to look for this information. Also, my spelling may not be exact. In any case, the problem with the font may be that it is in a format that OpenOffice.org does not recognize, or the font is not installed correctly.
