The legend of the Anguane – Enchanting Val Pusteria

The Anguane are also called Acquane, Langane and other names, but whatever they are called these creatures are “women of the waters”, bound to springs (and in the Belluno Dolomites there are about a hundred lakes and ponds). Legend has it that they were probably the last Celtic women, who took refuge in caves near lakes and streams to escape Roman rule (they are also called “Angane”, their Celtic name).
