THe KALEKTAKA SOCIETY 
The society of warriors called the Kalektaka was introduced by the 
Pakab clans, and their ceremony, the Momtcita, bears a very close 
likeness to that of the Priesthood of the Bow at Zuni. From these 
resemblances this society is regarded as of New Mexican origin, but 
among the Hopi it is simply the celebration of the Pakab clans and 
does not dominate the rites of any society previously mentioned. It 
is one of many cults, and, like others, was introduced by certain 
definite clans and has not obtained a hold upon others. In this its 
relationship differs from that of the Society of the Bow in the Zuni 
ritual. 
KATCINA CULTS FROM NEW MEXICAN PUEBLOS 
We come now to discuss a cult at Walpi which in many ways is 
unique, and so markedly different is it that we have no difficulty in 
distinguishing it from the cults already mentioned. The one feature 
which separates it from the others is the existence of masked person- 
ations—men wearing helmets or masks to personate supernatural 
beings. In its origin it is unlike any other, for it was not brought to 
Walpi by any one group of clans, but by several, the arrivals of which 
were separated by considerable periods of time, even generations. The 
kateina cult is therefore not homogeneous, for not only did different 
clans contribute to it, but these clans came from pueblos geographi- 
cally remote from one another. There is no one Katcina society limited 
to one group of clans, but all men and boys may and do enter into the 
performance of katcina dances. In this heterogeneous collection of 
allied cults we find some introduced by the Honani, some by the Asa, 
some purchased or borrowed from neighboring tribes. Some of the 
katcina dances are worn down to a single public masked dance from 
which all seeret rites have disappeared. Two at least, the Powamt 
and the Niman, are of nine days’ duration.
