Left-Handed (Siyangephoya) Kachina
The Left-Handed Kachina is a Hunter Kachina, this one returning with a fat rabbit, his left hand at the ready for another throw of his rabbit stick. Siyangephoya may originally have been based on a Hopi impersonation of the neighboring Hualapai people (located to the west above the Grand Canyon) and generally appears in mixed Kachina dances. Another very nicely detailed carving.
7 1/8" high.
