Never head that one, Blam. My guess is they are far closer to the knomes and elves which make up a large part of Norse lore. They are in the bedtime stories which parents tell their Children, both in Norway and America. Go to Bergen and on the docklands see all sort of wooden statues of these Leperchaun type characters.
> I have read a lot about the African Bushmen and they do seem to fill the bill in their mannerisms, physical appearance and etc.
I've seen Bushmen in southern Africa and none of them looked like any Irishman I've seen. {ggg}.
You've not seen a 'pure' Bushman. The Bushmen you saw were the original Bushmen mixed with the Bantu (black) invaders of the Bushmen territory. The 'pure' Bushmen are Mongoloid and in fact their children have the 'tell-tell' Mongoloid spots. The males have a semi-erect penis (continuously) and the females have a unique skin 'apron' covering the genital area.
My sister married into an Irish family with the name of Moorhead.
Any knowledge of the Fomorians?
