Cautantowwit (also known as Kytan) is the chief deity and creator god in the traditional religion of the Narragansett people. [1] [2] Cautantowwit was one of a pantheon of deities observed by the Narragansett, though all were ultimately created by him. [2]
According to the Narragansett, Cautantowwit lived in "the southwest". [3] They attributed the " Indian summer" to a wind that came from "the court of their great and benevolent god Cautantowwit". [3]
