It’s Faerie Friday! Post your fae folk!

Yumboes are two-foot-tall, silvery-white spirits from the folklore of the Wolof and Lebou people in Senegal, often called "good people". They resemble European fairies, live underground, and dance in the moonlight.

I'm stealing the 1st pic 😌

I find it really interesting how all these wildly diverse cultures from all over the world not only have Fae/nature spirit folklore but they also share many similarities.

@robingoodfellow That said, introducing the boscop man!
They were small and childlike compared to modern homosapiens and while not magic, they’re estimated 150 average IQ would have made a knowledge of herbalism and other ways of harnessing nature seem magic to primitive man.
It’s hypothesized they died out because there’s no evidence they formed communities, a thing that gave early man an edge.
@Straylight this is so cool! I have to read up some more on this
@Straylight something I think about:
When the human race was younger and living much closer with the natural world what if they had the ability to see and sense things that we no longer can?
Birds can see UV light patterns on flowers. We can't see them but that doesn't mean they're not there.
@Sojournersoul
@MyMonstersAreReal yes you do.

@MyMonstersAreReal I remember this one without the wording oh so well. I might even have it somewhere in a backup. Just don't remember which backup. 🤣
