Legend According to a version of the legend, Anjana was an apsara named Punjikastala, who was born on earth as a vanara princess due to the curse of a sage. Anjana was married to Kesari, a vanara chief, and the son of Brihaspati. Anjana was the mother of Hanuman. Being Anjana's son, Hanuman is also called ''Anjaneya'' or ''Anjanayar'' in the Tamil tradition''.'' There are several legends about the birth of Hanuman.

Anjana (Cantabrian Mythology)
The Anjana ( Cantabrian: (Western) nˈhana (Eastern) n.xa.nɜ ) (from ''jana'', a former word for witches during the Middle Ages) are one of the best-known fairies of Cantabrian mythology. These female fairy creatures foil the cruel and ruthless Ojáncanu. In most stories, they are the good fairies of Cantabria, generous and protective of all people. Their depiction in the Cantabrian mythology is reminiscent of the lamias in ancient Greek mythology, as well as the xanas in Asturias, the janas in León, and the lamias in Basque Country, the latter without the zoomorphic appearance. Oral tradition provides different explanations for the nature of the Anjana. Some say they are heavenly beings sent by God to do good deeds, and they go back to heaven after 400 years, never to return. Others, however, indicate that they are spirits of trees who take care of the forests. Anjana are described as beautiful and delicate, half a foot tall, with white skin and a sweet voice.
