Navajo Wolf Kachina Symbolic Meaning
The wolf kachina appears in the mixed dance and the water serpent ceremony. He is a side dancer in the Soyohim dances. The wolf is considered a great pack hunter who helps and guides the hunters on large combined hunts. After the dances the Wolf is offered cornmeal or ceremonial prayer feathers, so the tribes may learn from him and secure game on their hunt.
