In San or Bushman mythology, a divine trickster figure or culture hero with shapeshifting powers.
From Khoisan languages of southern Africa, particularly San (Bushman) languages. The word preserves indigenous cultural concepts in English.
Cagn is a shapeshifter deity who embodies the San people's relationship with nature and their own cleverness—anthropologists see him as proof that 'trickster' figures appear across almost every human culture.
