The Vintage Black Ogre Kachina, measuring 18 inches tall with a log 4 inches long, was purchased at a Native American convention in 1979 by a Hopi collector. This handmade Native American doll represents the culture and traditions of the Hopi tribe in the United States. The unique design and craftsmanship make it a valuable collectible for collectors of Native American artifacts. Bought in 1979, pre-owned from a Hopi Kachina Collector.

The Black Ogre (Nata-aska), and the White Ogre (Wiharu), are disciplinarians who appear around the time of the Powamuya Ceremony. Each carries a saw (sometimes a knife) as well as a bow and arrows for hunting.
