Mask of Kok ko Thlan na (Great God) of Ne wekwe and Mask of Mi totasha: A Cultural and Religious Exploration This chromolithograph, created by August Hoen for the 23rd Annual Report of the Bureau of American Ethnology in 1904, showcases two significant masks from the Zuni Nation: the Mask of Kok ko Thlan na (Great God) of Ne wekwe and the Mask of Mi totasha. The Zuni people, a Native American tribe residing in the southwestern United States, have a rich cultural heritage steeped in complex rituals and ceremonies. The masks in this image are essential components of their religious practices, representing the deities Kok ko Thlan na (Great God) of Ne wekwe and Mi totasha. Ne wekwe, or the Corn Maiden, is a central figure in Zuni mythology, symbolizing the fertility of the earth and the renewal of life. Kok ko Thlan na, the Great God of Ne wekwe, is believed to be the protector of the Corn Maiden and the giver of life. The mask, adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, embodies the power and reverence held for this deity. Mi totasha, on the other hand, is a rain deity, crucial for the agricultural success of the Zuni people. The mask of Mi totasha, with its distinctive features and elaborate headdress, represents the spirit of this rain-giving deity. This chromolithograph, a printmaking process that uses multiple lithographic stones or plates, offers a glimpse into the intricate and sacred world of the Zuni people. It serves as a testament to their rich cultural heritage and the importance of their religious practices in their daily lives. August Hoen, a skilled artist and illustrator, expertly captured the essence and beauty of these masks, preserving their image for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
