The modern fairies, between the 18th and 20th century, comes from oral tradition before they were transmitted Faeries writing. They are not divinity, ie. However, if we Faeries at the idea of fairies, then you would find that have been around Faeries lot longer than everyone expects. Perhaps the earliest form of faeries can be found loosely in the mythical beings in Greek mythology, such as the nymphs, satyrs and sileni. The nymphs from ancient Greek myths can be considered as fairies and they existed as early as the time of Homer writing the Iliad and the Odyssey. Even the river gods in Greek myths can be classified as fairies. These are spirits or minor deities of nature or of the natural phenomena. And then, there are household or guardian Faeries that can be found in Roman religion and mythology, such as the penates, lares and genii. The Valkyries could also be classified as fairies. Earlier Faeries Shakespeare, Chaucer mentioned that the land of Britain was filled with fairies before the time of King Arthur. In Faeries Arthurian legends, the divine or fairy figures also appeared in abundance. And then there is this Lady of the Lake. Many knights were either Faeries from fairies or they took female fairies as their lovers. Even Merlin was only part mortal. Then you would Faeries that that Faeries images of fairies are not the only kind. There were all sorts in fairy tales and Faeries. Some are benign, while others are maligned Faeries hostile to mortals. Some Faeries seen as fair, while Faeries were considered ugly and monstrous to look at. They can come in all size and sizes — tall or short, fat or skinny, so there is really no clear definition of fairies may look like. Different Faeries of fairies may also have Faeries types of magical powers. To understand what Faeries are, we Faeries look at some of those found in Celtic Faeries and other Faeries traditions. But, then you would discover that fairies are not just confined in Celtic traditions. Many cultures and Faeries have their own versions of fairies. There are enough kinds of fairies Faeries confuse anyone, because sometimes writers have associated one fairy with a different kind. But the situation Faeries when Christianity spread to the west and north. These deities that were worshipped before the conversion to Christianity were reduced to the status Faeries fairies in Celtic mythology and folklore. So in Ireland the gods in the Tuatha De Danann were degenerated Faeries the roles of fairies eg. Dagda and LughFaeries living under the dune mound or fabled islands, or even within underwater domains. Similar degeneration occurred with Faeries deities in Wales, Scotland and other surviving pockets of Celtic kingdoms such as Cornwall, Brittany and island of Man. These earlier Celtic traditions of Faeries, the former Irish or Welsh deities were also not fairies in the usual sense. The Dananns or their Faeries counterparts were usually seen Faeries race of fair people. They Faeries die just as Faeries can, but their lives could last hundreds or even thousands of years. The problem is that sometimes, the Christian authors have also turned them into beings serving the Devil, and Faeries the fairies were actually demons. However this view is no longer shared, today. These medieval fairies are different from the common folklore and fairy tales of today. The Tuatha de Danann is nothing like the brownie, leprechaun and goblin of these later traditions. Faeries plural. Manx: ferrish. Welsh: y tylwyth teg the fair folk. Cornish: spyrys. Breton: korriganez, boudig.

The Tuatha de Danann who lived in the sidh, ruled by a king, and sometimes a queen or bothcan be considered as the social fairies. They were often seen feasting, singing and dancing. They Faeries be Faeries benevolent or hostile to humans. Another example of trooping fairies is Faeries Merrow. The solitary fairy usually Faeries large gathering. There are many Faeries of solitary fairy, such as banshee, leprechaun, cluricaune, brownie, pooka, etc. Generally, they can recognise by the type of jackets they wore. The social fairies wore green jackets, while the solitary fairies wore red ones, but sometimes their jackets are Faeries or grey. Scottish fairy folklore can also be divided in the similar fashion of solitary and social fairies. Sikes says that there are four types Faeries the Norse tradition: 1 elves, 2 dwarves and troll, 3 nisses and 4 necks, mermen, and mermaids. Here, the classification of Welsh fairies distinguished household fairies from that of the mines, lakes and mountains.

British Goblins was written by Wirt Sikes Since there are many types of faeries, there will only be Faeries on faeries that have parallel Faeries or has antecedents from the mythical beings of the Celtic mythology.
