Corn Maiden

Corn is to Pueblo people what the buffalo has always been to the Plains Indians, the very symbol of LIFE. In Zuni mythology, the Corn Maidens brought this gift, and many of the carvings of women, especially those with a criss-cross pattern on the body, are carved to pay homage to the Corn Maidens.

What is a tabletta (also called a Tablita)? It is a portion of the headdress of the Hopi Butterfly Maiden. It is a decorated board with stair step edges and a decorated front and back. It is worn, using a harness to hold it onto the head, so that the widest portion is seen from the front or the back.
