The figure at center is likely the Navajo Ye'i known as Black God who was the personification and symbol of Fire. He is also associated with night and his spirit is invoked for the wintertime healing ceremony known as Nightway. He is supposed to have created the stars and the star grouping known as the Pleiades can be seen on the left side of the face (look for the crosses on the right of the main mask).
