    Description

    The Hopi Warrior Maiden Kachina
    by Neil Richard David, 1990
    It is an amazing story of a young Hopi maiden of how the Black Ogre came to be –
    While a young maiden was preparing for her wedding day the village was attacked by marauders,
    as they were setting fire to the village.
    It is said she grabbed her father's weapons, as she and other women fought the attackers, until help arrived.
    In the Pachavu ceremony, she is depicted in a black dress with a black face due to the fire.
    The Black Ogre (Nata-aska) remain stark and intense, as she carries a rattle and a bow, she chases the small children who are naughty.  It shows how fearless and brave she was for the ones she loved.
    18" tall x 8.25" wide x 8"deep

    The belief is that kachinas are ancestral spirits that help connect humans with the spirit world in their features of the natural world such as clouds, winds, thunder, and rain.
