Orco Mamman was a beautiful woman who served as the guardian of gold, silver, and all metals lying deep in the mountains. She would often brush her long hair with a golden comb. When metals were excavated excessively and caused damage to the mountains, she would punish the miners by pushing metal-laden caravans returning from the hilltops into deep abysses.
