Some Kokopelli history:
Kokopelli was said to play a flute as he traveled to pronounce his arrival to the villagers and it was considered the greatest of honors to be the women he chose to be his "dreamtime companion" for his duration of time in the village as many of these women apparently bore children from these unions. His name -- KOKO for wood and Pilau for hump, which was the bag of seeds he always carried -- was given to him on this long journey. It is said that he draws heat from the center of the Earth. He has come down to us as the loving spirit of fertility -- of the Earth and humanity. His invisible presence is felt whenever life come forth from seed -- plants or animals.
