Expert: Renee Aun

Subject: Cherokee Belief

Question
Dear Renee Aun,
   Can you please help me understand the Cherokee belief of the Ewah? Is this something believed by the Cherokee to be a myth or something believed as true? What is its origin and has there been mention of the Ewah in current times?
  Very Sincerely,
Paul

Answer
Hi Paul,

I found some sites for you about the Ewha, or more commonly referred to as the wampas or wampus cat.
