UWendigo sisidalwa esikwisiqingatha sesilwanyana esinamakhono okuzingela angaphezu kwawemvelo avela kwiintsomi zamaIndiya aseMelika. Isizathu esona siqhelo sokutshintsha kwe-Wendigo kukuba umntu ubhenele kuso Ukutya abantu.
Intsomi yakwaWendigo:
I-wendigo yinxalenye yesintu esidumileyo kubantu abaninzi abathetha i-Algonquin, kubandakanya i-Ojibwe, iSaulteaux, iCree, iNaskapi, kunye nabantu base-Innu. Nangona iinkcazo zinokwahluka ngandlela ithile, okuqhelekileyo kuzo zonke ezi nkcubeko yinkolelo yokuba i-wendigo sisidlakudla, sidla inyama, sinamandla angaphezu kwendalo. Babenxulunyaniswa kakhulu nobusika, emantla, ukubanda, indlala, nendlala.
Inkcazo ye-Wendigo:
Abantu bahlala bechaza iiWendigos njengeengxilimbela eziphindwe kaninzi kunabantu, uphawu olungekhoyo kwiintsomi kwezinye iinkcubeko zeAlgonquian. Nanini na xa i-wendigo itya omnye umntu, yayiza kukhula ngokulingana nokutya eyayikutyile, ngoko ayinakuze ihluthe.
Ke ngoko, ii-wendigos ziboniswa njengodlakudla ngaxeshanye kwaye zibhityile kakhulu ngenxa yendlala. I-Wendigos kuthiwa ayineliseki emva kokubulala nokutya umntu omnye, bahlala bekhangela ixhoba elitsha.
UWendigo ulibulala njani ixhoba lakhe?
I-Wendigo yosulela amaxhoba ayo kancinci, ibathuthumbisa njengoko ithatha ingqondo nomzimba. Iqala ngevumba elingaqhelekanga elinokuthi livakale ixhoba kuphela. Baza kuva amaphupha amabi kunye nemvakalelo yokutsha enganyamezelekiyo kuyo yonke imilenze neenyawo zabo kwaye bahlala bephelisa ukuzikhulula, babaleke ze kwihlathi njengendoda ephambeneyo, behla bade babhubhe. Abambalwa ababuya ehlathini emva kokubandezeleka yi-Wendigo fever kuthiwe babuya bengaphilanga kwaphela.
