A Zuni Kachina beaded doll is a traditional Native American artisan craft originating from the Zuni Pueblo people of New Mexico. These dolls represent kachinas (also spelled katsinas), which are supernatural spirits or deities in Zuni and Hopi cosmology. Kachinas embody natural forces like rain, animals, plants, or celestial bodies, and they play a central role in Pueblo religious ceremonies. The dolls themselves serve as educational tools, particularly for children, to teach about these spirits' appearances, roles, and cultural significance.
