Owl Nature-Spirit of Ashanti

nature-spirit · Ghana · West Africa

Not independently attested in Ashanti (Akan) tradition. Owls in Akan folklore are often witch familiars or omens (e.g., 'koko' owl), not benevolent nature-spirits guarding valleys. No named 'Owl Nature-Spirit' appears in Rattray or Ashanti ethnographies. Record appears fabricated.
