TANO GIANT

A creature of the ape kind.  It is said to live in Ghana and to be taller than a man. It is white with black hair.  It hasn't any thumbs.  It will kill and probably eat children.  It seems to carry some kind of garment, which it wraps around itself to fend off the cold.  The creature is referred to in the book Gold Coast Palaver (1911) by Louis Bowler.

N.B. - Ghana was formerly called the Gold Coast.  Do not mix it up with the Gold Coast in Australia.
