This katsina is signed by Orlan, and I purchased him from Orlan directly. Hiilili is a whipper katsina, guard or security figure whose family appears during the Powamuya, Angkwa and the summer day katsina dances. Dressed in the Snake Dancers costume, he is a very spirited dancer. The Koyemsimu sing to them when they perform in group
