Pl. XXXIII. QooQoQLOM Katcinas. 



a. Qooqoqlom Katcinas arriving at the village in the afternoon of the ninth 

 day. It is the only Katcina that is now always dressed in American clothes. 

 Every Katcina holds in the right hand a gourd rattle, in the left a bag with corn- 

 meal and a bow with arrows. To the point of one of the latter is fastened a small 

 piece of rabbit skin. Some of the Katcinas carry presents {piki, watermelons, 

 corn, etc.). 



b. A Qooqoqlom Katcina rubbing cornmeal to the four sides of the kiva, by 

 which the kivas are said to be "opened" again for the Katcinas, none of which 

 have appeared since the last Farewell Katcina ceremony. After the Soyal cere- 

 mony is over Katcinas appear in great variety and large numbers for about six 

 months.
