The Sunface symbol plays a major role in Zuni culture because it represents the sacred Sun Father. The Zuni know the important role that the sun has in agriculture and sustaining all life- Sunface represents continuity of their crops, stability and life. 

In general, the symbol consists of a round face, slotted rectangular eyes, a small circle for the mouth, and a forehead divided into two sections. It’s common for the forehead to be half coral and half turquoise. The splitting of the forehead into two sections is to represent sunrise and sunset. Each person exists as an individual and a member of the family, which is another meaning of the splitting of the forehead.
