The Hopi Wolf Kachina doll, known natively in the Hopi language as Kweo, Kwewu, or Kwewuu, represents a highly respected animal spirit and master hunter in Hopi Pueblo religious tradition. These figures, or tithu, serve primarily as educational tools gifted to Hopi children to teach them about the Katsinam (spirit beings) who visit the villages between the winter solstice and mid-July to bring rain, fertility, and balance to the world.

Buying from more than one category? You only pay the highest rate in your cart, so eight fetishes and a pair of earrings ship together for just $15.
