Note 118 — RUINS IN TUSAYAN (continued 3)
Reading edition
The figure shown in plate cxxix, a, was probably intended to represent the Corn-maid, or an Earth goddess of the Sikyatki pantheon. Although it differs widely in drawing from figures of Calako-mana on modern bowls, it bears a startling resemblance to the figure of the Germ goddess which appears on certain Tusayan altars.
