The peoples from El Chocó and form the Pacific Coast have the belief in The Tunda, a woman who was born as fruit of the concubinage of the devil with a beautiful black woman who) fell in love during one night. This legendary woman has a human and different foot in the shape of a mill, which hides skilfully when it(he,she) faces someone. The only way of knowing her is discovering her skilfully find the leg of mill.

One appears the Tunda to the solitary children in the shape of mom or a nearby relative, or of a nice woman. Though also she presents the adult persons. A person "entundada" is that one that is called by the Tunda by her name, and stepwise one takes her to the jungle and there the entunda.

 

When a child is entundado, the parents and the godfathers have that UN-tundarlo with prayers, conjurations and with bass-drums and saucers in order that she returns it. Sometimes one appears in a house and makes believe the alone children that she is her mom who comes to contemplate them.
