Lore

Altamaha-ha (or Altie) is a legendary river serpent in Georgia's Altamaha River, described as a massive, humped, sturgeon-snouted creature. Rooted in Native American stories and persisting in modern sightings, it is generally seen as a gentle giant rather than aggressive, akin to a Southern Nessie guarding the waterways.
