The chief of the Oraibi, Lololoma, enthusiastically supported Hopi education, but his people were divided on this issue.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Talayesva|first1=Don.

These natives were referred to as "hostiles" because they opposed the American government and its attempts to force assimilation. The rest of the Oraibi were called "friendlies" because of their acceptance of white people and culture. The "hostiles" refused to let their children attend school. In 1893, the Oraibi Day School was opened in the Oraibi village. Although the school was in the village, traditional parents still refused to allow their children to attend. Frustrated with this, the US government often resorted to intimidation and force in the form of imprisonment as a means of punishment.

In November 1894, Captain Frank Robinson and a group of soldiers were dispatched to enter the village and arrested 18 of the Hopi resisters. Among those arrested were Habema (Heevi'ima) and Lomahongyoma. In the following days, they realized they had not captured all Hopi resisters and Sergeant Henry Henser was sent back to capture Potopa, a Hopi medicine man, known as "one of the most dangerous of resisters".<ref name=":0">{{Cite book |last=Gilbert |first=Matthew |title=Education beyond the Mesas |publisher=University of Nebraska |year=2010 |isbn=9780803216266}}</ref> Eager to rid Orayvi of all resisters, government officials sent 19 Hopi men who they saw as troublesome to [[Alcatraz Prison]], where they stayed for a year.<ref name="Whitely, Peter M. 1988" /> The US government thought they undermined the Hopi resistance, however this only intensified ill feelings of bitterness and resistance towards the government. When the Hopi prisoners were sent home, they claimed that government officials told them that they did not have to send their children to school, but when they returned, Indian agents denied that this was promised to them.<ref name=":0" /> Another Oraibi leader, ''Lomahongyoma'', competed with ''Lololoma'' for village leadership. In 1906 the village split after a conflict between hostiles and friendlies. The conservative hostiles left and formed a new village, known as ''[[Hotevilla-Bacavi, Arizona|Hotevilla]]''.<ref name="Dockstader, Frederick J. 1940" />
