Talk:Trolls

I thought it would just be fun to discuss this; I like to think that Trolls came from, as Tolkien suggested in a late idea, "Primitive Human-Types", which seems to be Tolkien-speak for early humans at the prime of their glory, since he uses the term "Primitive" to mean "First" and "Greatest" (as he did descibing Boldogs for example), which is technically how it's supposed to be used, though nobody uses it anymore. I guess these "Primitive Human-types" were Giants, and that Giants were related to Men, and perhaps Elves, all along. Perhaps Olog-hai are made by crossing Trolls together with their Giant ancestors. That's my theory anyway. I only gently alluded to this on this page, since it's still entirely possible the things are basically golems. SuperGrantZilla (talk) 05:35, January 11, 2015 (UTC)
