Nanabozho
In Anishinaabe mythology, particularly among the Ojibwa, Nanabozho also known as Nanabush〔(Legendary Native American Figures: Nanabozho (Nanabush) )〕 is a spirit, and figures prominently in their storytelling, including the story of the world's creation. Nanabozho is the Ojibwe trickster figure and culture hero (these two archetypes are often combined into a single figure in First Nations mythologies). ==Similar characters in other cultures== Among the eastern Algonquian peoples located north of the Abenaki areas, a similar character to Nanabozho existed, called ''Tshakapesh'' in the Innu language, ''Tcikapec'' in Attikamek, ''Tcakabesh'' in Algonquin, ''Chikapash'' among the eastern James Bay Crees and ''Chaakaapaas'' by the Naskapi, changing to various animal forms to various human forms (adult to child) and to various mythical animals such as the Great Porcupine, or Big Skunk. He conquered or diminished these mythical animals to smaller size after killing or changing them with his trickery or shape shifting. Among the Meskwaki, ''Wīsakehā'' serves a similar role, as does Wisakedjak among northern Algonquian peoples and for the Saulteaux in the Great Plains. The Abenaki-influenced Algonquin had a similar figure called ''Kanòjigàbe'' (Fiero spelling: ''Ganoozhigaabe''; Abenaki ''Gluskabe'').
