the people they saw that Hopopo had something with four points 
on it. Only Utctsiti knew what it was: it was a deer horn. With 
that horn the Hopopo can go through anything; it was strong and 
hard to punch holes with. Utctsiti asked them why they had fallen 
behind, but they could not give her a good reason for their delay. 
So then their mother told them: ‘‘Hereafter, as long as you live on 
this earth, you shall be the way you are. You shall cause the land 
where you walk to tremble and shake, and with the horn you have 
you will have the right [and power] to go through anything, even if 
no one else is able to do it. You shall be always like you are. You 
will have very limited ianyi (beneficent supernatural power, or 
blessing) to give to the world.”” Then Wikori and Hopopo calmed 
down. From there on they went with the rest of the people and 
the yaya. 
The home of Hovopo (and presumably Wikori) is northeast of 
Sia. They are impersonated in the katsina dances; they are side 
dancers and always come alone. The horn that Hopopo earries 
came from Shipap before deer were created. 
(The place where the people came out into this world is H‘a’atsu 
Kapawei—Karth’s navel. ‘The human body is just like the earth. 
We have a navel like the place where the people came out. Shipap 
is the place where the creation took place, down in the fourth world 
below this one, the Yellow world.) 
The people built a pa’eima (a temporary place of residence) near 
the place where they came out. Then they began to migrate toward 
the south, building pa’eima wherever they stopped for a while. Each 
of these temporary pueblos had a name. Kacikatcutiya, White 
House, was the last of the pueblos built before the people reached 
their present home. They lived at White House for awhile. The 
people began to increase. The sicti (common people) were given 
permission to build homes wherever they wished to live. Their 
mother said they could not return to one of the lower worlds, but 
must stay here in the White world. 
When they got to White House they built houses. The men were 
told to look around for land suitable for growing wheat, beans, melons, 
and other crops. When each man had his land Utetsiti began to 
create seeds of all kinds for them to plant. The people were eager 
to see what would happen when they planted their seeds. After the 
seeds had sprouted and the plants were young and growing, the 
tcaiyanyi performed their ceremonies for them. The shiwana (kat- 
sina) were caused to come and bring rain. Everyone believed every- 
thing; things grew easier then." It rained almost every day. There

everything will be well. Contrariwise, if you fall away from the old ways and beliefs evils of all kinds 
will befall us.’’
