The Wanagemeswak are mythical creatures from Penobscot mythology. They are dwarves with hatchet-like faces. They live in rivers and small pools of water and can only be seen from the side. They make small clay dolls and leave them behind for humans to find, bringing good luck. Citations: Gill, Sam D., and Sullivan, Irene F.. Dictionary of Native American Mythology.
