Alicanto
April 14th, 2009
The Alicanto, in Chilean mythology, is a mythological bird of the desert of Atacama. Legend has it that her wings shine with beautiful, metallic colors during the night with eyes that emit strange lights. Any miner who sees this bird brings them good luck and if they are able to follow it without getting caught, it will lead them to gold and silver. However, if they do get caught by the bird, it will mislead the miner off a cliff. They are said to live in small caves between hills that contain minerals. They also feed on gold and silver.

The Alan are deformed spirits that are told Tinguian Tribe folklore, located in the Philippines. These spirits are said to have wings, with fingers and toes that point backwards. This is what they believe these spirits do: take drops of menstrual blood, reproductive waste, afterbirths, and miscarried fetuses and transform them into human children. They then raise the children on their own. They believe that these spirits live among springs in fine houses, which are made of gold and other precious valuables.
