    The Koyemsi, or the Mudhead Kachina, is a clown who may be seen in most Hopi ceremonies.  Mudhead Kachinas drum, dance, play games with the audience, and may act as announcers for events.  They often give prizes or rewards for the races and guessing games they organize.
    The term “mudhead” comes from their masks which have mud applied to them.
