The Werewolf Belt
I have an old book (from Scholastic, of all places) about werewolf lore that describes how to become a werewolf. It involved geting a wolf-hair belt and dedicating yourself to the forces of darkness in exchange for the power to change. Then after you have performed a little ritual, you can put on the belt and become a wolf at will.
Has anything of this kind of folk-belief in werewolfery or shap-shifting ever been discovered by archaeologists, in the way that, say, a voodoo charm or curse has been found by archaeologists/anthropologists in the past? (Actually, my folklore prof had a juju charm that had been left under somebody's doorstep to curse them with bad luck).
