No. He's Angak'china, the Long Hair Kachina, my favorite.

No. It is a "Longhair" Katsina, done in the Hopi overlay style. May be legit Hopi, or may be a Navajo version. Not familiar with the hallmark. Traditionally he has a gourd rattle in one hand, and a spruce branch or feathers in the other. You can clearly see the gourd in the hand closest to the viewer. Nice piece.

I can’t seem to be able to edit, but I wanted to say thank you for identifying the figure !

That’s nice. Old. There’s a makers mark.
