Ralph Tawangyawma was a Hopi Two Horn Priest, and a "prophet" witnessed the split at Oraibi in 1906 and was among the traditionals who established Hotevilla Village
The One Horn Society. It is the duty of these priests to look after the dead. They are in charge of the spirit upon its journey from this world into Muski, the spirit world of the Hopi. These priests serve Muiaingwa, the Germ God, owner of the underworld, and Masauwu, God of the earth and of death.

Blackfoot horned "bonnet"
The split-horn headdress was very popular among Northern Plains Indians, particularly those nations of the Blackfoot Confederacy. Many warrior societies, including the Horn Society of the Blackfoot, wore the split-horn headdress. The split-horn headdress was made from a single bison horn, split in two and reshaped as slimmer versions of a full-sized bison horn, and polished.
