    Annotation:

    In this article I follow the itinerary of an oral legend starring a mythical woman who is dedicated to assaulting and sometimes causing death to drunk men, donjuanes or abusers, when she meets them in some remote or wild place. I will analyze parallels in other towns in Oaxaca and Mexico, and also in other countries of the American continent and Spain. The history of the story even goes back to the medieval European tale. I analyze the parallels with a story from the 13th century Castilian Sendebar.
