Describes the development of the Kokopelli phenomenon in American mass culture from its beginning to Kokopelli's status as pan-Southwestern icon. This book explores the figure's connections with the Hopi kachina god, Kookopolo and Maahu, the Cicada, and discusses how this rock art image is appropriated and misunderstood.
