Native American Jemez Made Santa Claus Storyteller with Kiva by Felicia Fragua

This is a fun storyteller by Felicia Fragua from Jemez, NM. In this case, Santa Claus a Santa Claus helper as well as Mrs. Claus holding a baby are all outside the kiva. The "chimney" has a kiva ladder coming out of the top. The kiva itself is decorated with Christmas and winter items. This is not a classic storyteller, but it sure does make you smile. The storyteller is an adaptation of centuries-old creations in figurine pottery. Cultural traditions and values have historically been passed on by tribal elders through songs and stories geared to teaching the young. It is in these delightful representations that the intense love of the Native American Indians for their children is most clearly shown.
