Does Kachina need to be capitalized? (Few English nouns do.)Vicki Rosenzweig

I've seen it both ways, but I don't know for sure. Tokerboy

No, kachina and katsina do not need to be capitalized. Only the proper names of each being (e.g., Mongwa, Sohu, or Qoqole) need to be. FYI katsina is becoming the accepted spelling, as it is closer to the Hopi pronunciation.
