Lore
Jarjacha is a cursed soul in Peruvian Andean folklore, a human transformed into a puma-man for sins like incest or betrayal, condemned to roam mountains attacking livestock or people. The creature howls at night, symbolizing guilt and punishment. Jarjacha represents retribution and the consequences of moral transgression. In myths, it serves as a warning against taboo acts, embodying the spiritual consequences of wrongdoing and the power of transformation in Andean tradition.
