In my area, around the Salish Sea, they are connected with a secret society called Hamatsa. In that context, the cannibal spirit is named Baxbaxwalanuksiwe and is accompanied by four man-eating birds. He is sometimes portrayed as having mouths all over his body. No one outside of the society knows for sure whether their rituals are literal or symbolic cannibalism (though obviously the modern society seems likely to be symbolic). I've also seen the spirits called Klail (Black) Tamanous (or Tamanawas, or Tamanewes, or several other spellings), but that phrase is more properly used to refer to the secret society among the Twana.faoladhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03691952430041394614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-63882805922489553672013-04-27T07:58:17.007-05:002013-04-27T07:58:17.007-05:00Be my guest!Be my guest!Timothy S.
