Crane Ghost of Ojibwe

ghost · United States · North America

No crane ghost is attested in Ojibwe tradition. In Anishinaabe culture the crane (Ajijaak, also Baswenaazhi, the Echo-Maker) is the leadership clan, one of the original seven doodemag, not a ghost or specter. This entry appears to be an AI template invention; the real crane figure is the clan totem that guided the Anishinaabe migration to Baawiting.
