Description

Native American Hopi Carved Hano Mana Katsina Sculpture by Virgil Long

The Hano Mana, just like the Grandmother (Hahay-i wu-uti), is a favorite for the first or second gift to the girls by the men of their villages. Hano Mana appears in the Bean Dance on Second Mesa and in the Water Serpent Ceremony on First Mesa. This sculpture also features the Hopi rain clouds and Kokopelli, playing his flute for the rain to help the corn grow.
