Zuni Carved Corn Maiden Fetish by Danette Laate

This Corn Maiden was carved from Picture Jasper with coral, turquoise and marble accents by Zuni artist Danette Laate. Just as a mother nurtures her newborn, the Corn Maiden is honored for nurturing her people with the flesh of her body, the sweet corn.
