A Kachina is an ancestral spirit in the religion of the pueblo Indians of present day fourcorners area of the Unitted States. In certain ceremonies Native American Kachinas are impersonalized by masked dancers wearing colorful costumes. They believe that when a person dies his or her ghost may be metamorphosed in a Kachina and live on as such in the after world. A particular Kachina does not, however, represent an individual ancestor but is instead a generalized mythical conception. No one knows how many different Kachinas there are, but more than 250 have been identified. The Kachinas are believed to spend half of every year performing ceremonies and completing their mystical rituals to keep the earth and all of its components in a harmonious balance between good and evil. These Indian crafted Kachinas are considered representations of these Kachina spirits.
