Harold Nevayaktewa with a very tall (16 inches)  Pusukinangaktsin katsina - the red-beard variation of the Anak'china or Long Hair katsina. He represents the spirit of the summer rains - specifically the long gentle, life-giving drizzles. The long hair represents the rain as one can sometimes see it wisping down from the clouds, almost like a brush stroke. The red hair symbolizes his close affiliation with Taawa – the Sun- who is responsible for the rainbow represented in the band above his beard. (That also gives him his other name: Pala sowitsuni or Red Beard.) The feathers used on the katsina dancers are parrot for the parrot symbolizes the south – the direction from which the summer rains come. $750. Mounted on a piece of slate. (TUCSON)
