WHITE OGRE KACHINA DOLL BY PAUL HUMA (HOPI)

The Wiharu accompanies the Soyoko on their collection trip all the while making noises and stamping their feet. They frighten the children who the Soyoko are threatening to eat if their demands for food are not met. They represent for the children the consequences of misbehavior for the Soyoko know of all their misdeeds. Usually a relative will speak up for the child and he or she will be ransomed with offerings of food, at which point, the Soyoko will take the offerings and move on to another house to repeat the performance.
