lathspell has just left Hobbiton.

No worries, Lanniae! Then the statement gets repeated a bit [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

In this thread 'creation' has come popping up a couple of times, yet this is a vague thing in my eyes. Surely the Hobbits were created, for everything else in the whole confines of Arda was created as well.
But if you mean: created like Iluvatar created Elves and Men, or Aule made the dwarves; then I'd think that this ain't the origin of the Hobbits. For all the creations were in the Silmarillion: Elves, Men, Dwarves, Ents, Orcs, Trolls and other evil things. Yet not a word is spoken about the Hobbits in the Elder Days, and that makes the possibility of Hobbits, being an obscure branche of Men after some hundreds of years of evolution, more likely.

Well, my fellow Downers, please state some reactions [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

greetings,
lathspell
