Navajo Mortals refers to the list of characters from Native American mythology of the Navajo tribe who are commonly depicted as heroes who were born human and achieved many great things during their lifetime. They are usually depicted as saviours of their tribe and people from great evil or other monsters.

The Navajo mortals are still revered among the dwindling population and they form a major part of the religious ceremonies of the indigenous people of the region. People adorn face masks and act out the stories of valour, bravery and honour even today. Shamans and tribe elders pass on the tradition to the younger generation via oral storytelling like in the past.
