http://stores.ebay.com/Metal-Art-Manifestations - Kokopelli presides over the reproduction of game animals, and for this reason, he is often depicted with animal companions such as rams and deer. Other common creatures associated with him include sun-bathing animals such as snakes, or water-loving animals like lizards and insects. Because of this, some scholars believe that Kokopelli's flute is actually a blowgun (or started out as one). AlterNatively, the "flute" may actually be a pipe for smoking tobacco in a sacred ceremony, or some other device entirely.
