K11 Kachin Mana
Kachin Mana by Hopi carver Dennis M. Namingha, Sr. The 12 1/2” x 4 1/2” x 4 1/2” kachina is on a 3/4” base. Carved from cottonwood root.
Of all the women who appear with other Kachinas, the Kachina Maiden, or Kachin' Mana, is the most prevalent. She often appears in regular Kachina dances with household ware, accompanied by Long Haired Kachina. Her presence is a prayer for corn. She also honors Mother Earth and her continuing ability to feed her children.
