Talk:Giants
From Tolkien Gateway
The whole Giant-Ent thing is a little theory of mine. I realise the real reason Giants are so mysterious is probably because Tolkien never got round to retrofitting that part of The Hobbit's bestiary to the legendarium proper but hey, I think it's an interesting thought. --Aule the Smith 03:15, 10 February 2008 (EST)
- The entire article need a bit of clean-up. Also, check out the origin-myth of Tarlang's Neck: it's mentioned in The Lord of the rings: A Reader's Companion, and features a heathen belief in giants making the White Mountains. There's also an elvish root for "giant", NOROTH, giving Quenya norsa and Sindarin noroth. -- Ederchil 05:56, 10 February 2008 (EST)
