The Hopi Eagle Dancer Kachina (Kwahu or Kwahu Katsina) is a powerful and revered figure in Hopi Pueblo spiritual traditions of the American Southwest.

The Eagle (Kwahu) symbolizes strength, power, freedom, and connection to the heavens. As a ruler of the sky, the Eagle Kachina serves as an intermediary between the physical world and the spirit world. Dancers imitate the eagle's flight, hunting movements, cries, and behaviors during ceremonies. It often appears with Mudhead (Koyemsi) Kachinas and is featured in dances like the Kiva or Repeat Dances in early spring, the Solstice Parade, and the Powamu Ceremony.
