Machukuna

Beste izen batzuk: suq'a
Folklorea eta mitoaHil-biziak

The machukuna is a desiccated dead being of the Peruvian highlands, a skeleton or shell that roams the mountains seeking to become flesh again. Unlike the condenado it is often harmless and may labour quietly at night. Its evil variant, the suq'a, preys on the living. Together they show an Andean range of walking dead running from pitiable to predatory.1
