Kata
Kickapoo
- Kata (型) (literally: "form") is a detailed pattern of defense-and-attack used in traditional Japanese martial arts.
- Kata is also the alternative name for the Katir, a numerically dominant Siah-Posh tribal group in former Kafirstan, the present Nuristan province, located in eastern Afghanistan.
- Kata is also a direction of the fourth spatial Dimension, the counterpart of ana. This usage comes from the Greek word meaning 'down'. The ana-kata four vector is an equivalent of the three-dimensional vectors (forward-backward, left-right and up-down), but trying to describe it in 3d is like describing up in terms of left and right.
- Kata is also an Israeli company manufacturing photo equipment protection cases and military items.
