A TUSAYAN FOOT RACE. 123 



brick red. The mask was made of leather and crossed by 

 two parallel zigzag lines in white over the nose and by two 

 similar zigzag lines not parallel upon the eyebrows. A 

 black mark extended from the corners of the mouth to the 

 edge of the jaws, and a sijnilar black line from the eyes to 

 the ears parallel with the first. On the upper part of the 

 head there was a dentated crown in white upon a black 

 ground, and on the back of the helmet there were symbolic 

 crosses representing the star god Qo-tu'k-i-nung and two 

 serpents. This helmet was much more complicated than 

 the other two which we have described and is a much 

 more elaborate piece of work. Portions of the back of 

 the helmets were made of an old felt hat, but the mask was 

 of leather. 



HO-NAN-KA-TCI-NA. 



Among the participants is the Wa-wdc at Te-wa was a 

 man dressed in a rabbit robe, who wore on his head a 

 rounded helmet with protuberant snout. He carried in 

 his hand a stick at the end of which was tied a branch of 

 cactus, with which he went from one to another of the spec- 

 tators paying his attention especially to the women, girls 

 and boys, driving them from their seats in the plaza with 

 this spiny implement. This Kd-tci-nd was decorated with 

 the symbol of the bear Ho-nan-i, a figure representing the 

 imprint of the bear's claw and on that account has been 

 identified as the Bear Kd-tci-nd. 



CHE-KA-NA. 



During the Wd-wac at Si-tciim-o-vi, two persons wearing 

 the helmet of Ghe-ka!-nd took part. I have examined the 

 helmets worn by them but did not succeed in getting good 

 photographs. The helmets are painted brown on one side 

 of the face and green on the other, the eye openings hav- 

 ing rows of dots above them. From my notes I find that 

 the bodies of these persons were painted in two colors.
