K850 - Hopi Mudhead Katsina - Wood - Artist: Johnny Wester - Measurements: 4-1/2"L x 11"H x 5-1/4"D Description: According to Hopi lore, the Mudhead was the first being to emerge into this, the Fourth World of the Hopi. The Mudhead climbed up the inside of a reed and when he entered this world, covered in mud, he found himself at the base of the Grand Canyon. The hole he emerged from is called the sipapu and every kiva has a small sipapu in the floor to remind the Hopi from whence they came.
