Kokopelli

Kokopelli is a fertility deity venerated by several Native American cultures of the southwestern United States, usually depicted as a humpbacked flute player. He presides over childbirth and agriculture, and also functions as a trickster figure and a spirit of music. Among the Hopi specifically, Kokopelli is said to carry unborn children on his back and distribute them to women, and he appears in rituals connected with marriage, sometimes alongside a female consort called Kokopelmimi. The Hopi were the people through whom Spanish explorers first learned of this figure, which is why the Hopi name became the one most widely used for him in English.
