Glooscap
Legendary figure of the Wabanaki peoples in the United States and Canada
Glooscap
Glooscap (variant forms and spellings Gluskabe, Glooskap, Gluskabi, Kluskap, Kluscap, Kloskomba, or Gluskab) is a legendary figure of the Wabanaki peoples, native peoples located in Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine and Atlantic Canada. The stories were first recorded by Silas Tertius Rand and then by Charles Godfrey Leland in the 19th century. In his role as creator, Glooscap is similar to that of the Ojibwa Nanabozho and the Cree Wisakedjak. There are variations to the legend of Glooscap as each tribe of the Wabanaki adapted the legend to their own region. At the same time, there are consistencies in the legend with Glooscap always portrayed as "kind, benevolent, a warrior against evil and the possessor of magical powers".
