KACHINA DOLL - HOPI STYLE - USA, ARIZONA NR3

These stylized icons are a tangible way to teach Hopi children about their religion, and have been serving this purpose for many generations of Hopi Indians.

 

Authentic Kachina dolls are made from cottonwood root and painted to depict one of the 400 mythical beings in the Hopi religion. The Hopi children took great care of Kachinas, and were instructed not to play with them, contrary to the uses of other dolls in their culture.

 

As the sales of original Kachina dolls are prohibited in the USA, this is a modern reproduction made in the Hopi style.
