re: #195 stuiec
Nice. Except here we have actual fossil evidence of little people, so the comparison to the dog-headed legends is inapt.
I was just making the point that cultures will generate tales of little people whether there are actual little people to go on or not.
There’s no reason to assume that just because some legends reference little people, that they are referencing these little people - the people of the fossils. In fact, I’d say given the time scales involved here, that it’s a tad unlikely.
