Four large Hopi Kachina Doll Lot - Eagle Dancer, Mouse Warrior,

Description: All of the dolls range from 9" to 15" high, and are hand made. The Hopi Mongwu is signed by Larry Hobbs. All of the dolls were purches in the 1970's. Mike Sakiestewa was born in the village of Moenkopi, located on the Hopi Reservation in Arizona. He has been hand carving his traditional Hopi Katchina dolls for over 20 years. Mike only uses the traditional cottonwood roots for his carvings. He resides in Laguna, New Mexico. Though not a Katsina, the Mouse Warrior (Tusun Humitsi) is a hero to the Hopi of Second Mesa for having rid the people of a troublesome chickenhawk they had been unable to eliminate from the Mesa. The Mouse Warrior tricked the chickenhawk into impaling itself on a stake and thus became a hero to the people. This is a wonderful piece by Delbert. The mouse has quite the attitude as he proudly carries his bow and arrows, shield and tomahawk. D. Smith Kachina Doll of this beautiful Eagle Dancer Kachina represents Strength and power. He is the ruler of the sky, a heavenly messenger who can carry a person’s dreams up to heaven. Kwahu, the Eagle Kachina is treated as an honored guest among the Hopi, who give them presents like they do their children. This piece is carved by the Navajo with leather, fur and feathers. A.B. signed the Bear Kachina is of such great strength that it is felt he can cure the sick. He appears in the kachina return or Soyal of First Mesa as the watchman or side dancer for the Chakwaina. Warrior Boy (Hakto) is a diminutive of the Zuni name Yamuhakto, which means "carrying wood on his head." The Hopi adopted Hakto from a Zuni Katsina approximately a hundred years ago. Hakto appears in the Mixed Dance, and also performs with Sio Salako. This Katsina is always personated by a young boy. By Colton
