Monstrous and evil anthropomorphic giant of Cantabrian mythology with only one eye like the Greek cyclopes and with ten fingers on each limb. It feeds on fruits of the field, acorn, corn, bats and what it steals from fishermen, farmers and ranchers. In the winter it knocks down trees, destroys bridges, uproots rocks and opens ravines. Its female is the ojáncana , which they also call jáncana or juáncana of which children who get lost in the forest should be very careful.
