The Broadface (Wuyak-kuita) is among the guards who prevent any transgression on the path of the Katsinas. Often called the Broadface Whipper Katsina, he carries yucca fronds that he uses frequently as whips, particularly on clowns, who are terrified of him. He is an important figure in the winter Bean Dance (Powamuya) procession. This katsina is frequently hung just inside the doorway to keep evil spirits away. A Guard for the home.
