Wolf Animal-Spirit of Muisca

animal-spirit · Colombia · South America

The 'Wolf Animal-Spirit of Muisca' is not attested in Muisca mythology. The Muisca (Altiplano Cundiboyacense, Colombia) had no wolves—wolves are absent from South America. Muisca deities include Bochica, Chía, Sué, Chibchacum, and Bachué; snip animal spirits include the snake and bear-fox Nencatacoa. The record appears fabricated.
