AUTHOR: Joe S Sando, Jemez Pueblo
Six months of every year, the kachinas resided in the mountains to the west, where they could be seen as cloud banks gathering
above the peaks.
Then shortly after the winter solstice, they would return to the pueblo.
Summoned in secret kiva ceremonies, the kachinas arrived through the sipapu hole in the floor to act as intermediaries between the spirit realm and the world of humans.

R&S->Kachinas: The kachinas

AUTHOR: Michael Lomatuway'ma, Hopi
Among all Pueblo people, religion plays a vital role in dailylife. At the heart of religious life, particularly among western groups like the Hopi and Zuni, were the infinitely helpful kachinas-also sometimes called katsinas.
In a world infused by supernatural forces, each visible object had a spiritual counterpart, a divine essence as real as the thing itself.
