there is a lot written about the tuatha. a good book to learn more is "celtic magic" by d. j. conway. or any book on wicca. i have a couple of references from this book and another one, but they are kinda long, and its pretty late here, so im not gonna type it all out. but considering that the tuatha lived in something called a sid or siod (the plural would be sidhe or side, which means a round barrow, mound or hill) i think tolkien weaved a bit of all kinds of myth and religions into all of his charecters. but this is just my thought.
