Native American Hopi Carved Heoto Mana Katsina Doll
Description
Native American Hopi Carved Heoto Mana Katsina Doll by Verne Mahkee
The Heoto Mana Katsina is in a category of Katsinam that can be considered either warriors or guards. Individually, the Heoto Mana may function as a policewoman. Over the years, many of these original functions have been lost. The Heoto Mana, and the Heoto, may have both come from the Zuni tribe. The Heoto Mana appears everywhere with Heoto and dances on all three mesas. Her function is similar to that of He-e-e, the Warrior Maiden Katsina. She also acts as a guard in some places.
