Yes, I'd say the elves are more like the ancient Greeks. They had much renaissance in philosophy, beautiful architecture, polotics. They were into the arts a lot, though Romans did were some too, and they also had excellent architecture, but more of their energy went into war. Yeah, Numenoreans sound good as Romans. But, the Greeks weren't bad fighters, as the elves are, elves are just more into the peaceful stuff. But, then again, maybe I'm wrong. It's hard to make connections betweem fantasy and reality! Hmmmmm...I'm trying to think of more connections that I might do better with, but I've gone blank.
Why did I post that? Come on people, contradict me! I'm waiting! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
