Ryon Polequaptewa Interprets Tawaquaptewa

Ryon Polequaptewa is a Hopi carver who is the great-grandson of Wilson Tawaquaptewa (1873-1960). He saw a picture I had posted awhile back of the Tawaquaptewa carving (from the 1940s) as shown on the left. I think Ryon’s interpretation on the right is spot on. Ryon’s carving is 13 ½” tall to the top of the horns.
