KA-CHI-NA translated... "Spirit Being"

Centuries ago, elders began carving these dolls as teaching tools for the children. The elders came forth from the "KIVA" or ceremonial room where they communicated with the spirits. What the spirits taught the elders was then illustrated to others through the spirit carvings. Kachina Dolls, like the human Kachina Dancer, are the visual representations of the invisible spirits that assist in the rigors of life.

This is a carved wood Deer Dancer kachina by D+M Kenneth (Dine). It is signed.
This piece is 10 inches tall.
