The famous hunchbacked flute player, is a symbol of joy and fertility It is said that he was so charming that he could charm an eagle or the wind itself. He is one of the most intriguing and widespread images surviving from ancient Anasazi Indian mythology, and is a prominent figure in Hopi legends. The figure represents a mischievous trickster or the Minstrel, spirit of music. Kokopelli is considered a symbol of fertility who brought well-being to the people, assuring success in hunting, planting and growing crops, and human conception. This mythological creature is thousands of years old but oh so much in the present also. Wearing a piece of Native American Jewelry with a Kokopelli featured surely could be called a good luck charm
