Hututu Kachina

Hututu and/or Sai-astasana - This kachina originated in the Zuni Pueblo and were adopted by the Hopi. Hututu got his name from the sound that he makes and the name is the same with both the Zuni and the Hopi. Hututu is a Zuni Rain Priest of the North and holds a Bow and the Shoulder Bones of a Sheep. He appears with many of the other Zuni kachinas when they dance at Hopi. Probably the only difference that may be noted by the observer between Hututu and Sai-astasana is the presence of a horn on Sai-astasana's head, while Hututu has a terraced ornament on one side of the head.
