While most fetishes depict animals, some represent ceremonial figures like priests, drawing from Zuni religious societies such as the Bow Priesthood. These \"priest fetishes\" or \"altar fetishes\" often symbolize guardians or mediators in rituals, and they are typically carved from natural materials like antler, stone, shell, or bone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46030607679653,"sku":"221107-340","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/221107-340_1.jpg?v=1762192379","url":"https:\/\/antiqueamericanindianart.com\/products\/zuni-antler-priest-fetish-with-tin-ornaments","provider":"Antique American Indian Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
