This Kachina represents Chaveyo and according to Barton Wright in "Classic Hopi and Zuni Kachina Figures" he is one of the most fearsome beings. If a youngster or an adult misbehaves badly this Kachina may come looking for him unless he mends his ways. The characteristic identifiers include nakedness, dots on legs and/or feet, crosses on his cheeks, and a cape thrown over the shoulders.This Kachina is in the grouping normally referred to as an ogre Kachina. It has bulging eyes and a protruding snout exhibiting a fierce aspect. In dances Chaveyo uses this ferocity to scare the children and even men into behaving. He appears during the Spring anytime but especially during the Powamuya (Bean Dance) and the Palolo Kongi (Water Serpent Dance) being badgered by clowns until he whacks them away.

This kachina is probably Anahoho- one of two strangers who appeared during the wanderings of the Zuni people. They were guided by the Salimopea (six fierce warrior kachinas) and a fleet of runners. Stories relate that the two brothers were sent out to search for the middle of the Zuni world and when they returned to their brother, Kiako, they found the villages burned. When they did not find their brother they smote their faces with blackened hands in their grief. One smote with his right hand and one with his left. The handprint is on their masks. When these two visitors entered Zuni the people were afraid of the Salimpoea accompanying them and put their objects on their rooftops and fled. The Anahoho peered into the chimneys giving their mournful cry still looking for their brother and while the Salimopea threw down the possessions from the rooftops where people had placed them and then the Salimopea stomped on and destroyted them. To this day Anahoho continue searching for their lost brother, never finding him but sending the souls of men's possessions into the afterworld. Their name prefix "Ana" reflects their mournful cry. The small sticks they carry, or yamuwe, are for exorcism and the black fringe around their neck represents crow wings. When time for exorcism they lay aside the sticks and use yucca whips.This kachina doll has a helmet style mask with a handprint for a face and squash blossoms for ears. He wears a black bib and carries feathered wands in each hand. He also wears a fringed dance skirt. The original name Salimpopea Anahoho Shikjana comes from the Culin journals and is a combination of the two kachinas, the Anahoho and the Salimopea Shikan'ona who accompanied them.

This is a kachina dressed with a painted lilt, tall hide boots, yarn armbands and a ruff around his neck of plant material.

This Kachina doll is probably Qotsamanavitu, Snow Maiden. The doll characteristically has no arms and is carved with a cylindrical body. The head has two spools (similar to the historical hair style worn by unmarried Hopi women.) This Kachina accompanies the Hemis Kachina during the Niman ceremony-performed at the mid-summer and ends the Kachina cycle. The Hemis sing in low voices while the Snow Maidens sing in high voices. In the second part of the dance they kneel and play their gourd/rasp violins. Their songs are prayers for rain and a full harvest.

This kachina has a face painted with dots all over. He is dressed with a long dress, belted with cords underneath a painted cape. His head has a fluffy feather headdress. He carries a staff in his proper right hand.

Stewart Culin provided the name Kjaklo for this particular kachina doll, which may not be accurate. Now identified as Kiaklo. Feathers are tied to the top of his head. His white face has painted dashes extending out from the bottom of each small eye in three different directions. On one side of his head is a small horn-shaped ear. The kachina is wearing a two-piece textile dress and sash, upon which are painted geometric designs. Around neck are a feather ruff and a disproportionately large shell amulet. Wrists are tied with colored yarn. In proper right hand is a small wooden bird- probably a duck. On kachina's feet are high, long-fringed leather boots, tied at the top with yarn. See the long story about Kiaklo in "Kachinas of the Zuni"pgs. 51-53.by Barton Wright. Involves Kiaklo searching for the middle, being counseled by Duck, and offering to guide him (he had become blind) if he put his shell around Duck. He appears every four years at the initiations of young boys ensuring they are initiated into the Kachina cult and preparing the way for the Salimopea and Kolowisi. The kachina doll is in stable and good condition; however, garment decorations reveal some paint losses. Leather is stiff and appears brittle.
