	Fairy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A fairy (sometimes seen as fairie or faerie) is a spirit or supernatural being that is found in the legends, folklore, and mythology of many different cultures.
		In many legends, the fairies are prone to kidnapping humans, either as babies, leaving changelings in their place, or as young men and women.
		This is in contrast to the solitary fairies, such as the banshee, leprechaun, or pooka.

	Fairy - LoveToKnow 1911
		The neighbours said that the fairies caused the phenomenon, as the man had swept his chimney with a bough of holly, and the holly is "a gentle tree," dear to the fairies.
		It is a not uncommon theory that the fairies survive in legend from prehistoric memories of a pigmy people dwelling in the subterranean earth-houses, but the contents of these do not indicate an age prior to the close of the Roman occupation of Britain; nor are pigmy bones common in neolithic sepulchres.
		They chiefly differ from our fairies in their greater tendency to wear animal forms; though, like the fairies, when they choose to appear in human shape they are not to be distinguished from men and women of mortal mould.

	Fairy tale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The fairy tale is a sub-class of the folktale.
		Fairy tales appear, now and again, in written literature throughout literate cultures, as in The Golden Ass or Panchatantra, but it is unknown to what extent these reflect the actual folk tales even of their own time.
		Although in the nineteenth and twentieth century the fairy tale came to be associated with children's literature, adults were originally as likely as children to be the audience of the fairy tale.

	FAIRY
		The great fairy hosts seem to be distinctly Milesian, but there are still folk memories of perhaps older pre-Gaelic races and their gods, in the form of the 'geancanach', a spirit of Ulster, or the 'cluricaun', of Munster.
		The fairy queen of the north of Munster is Aoibheal; she is the ancestral deity of the O'Briens, (the descendants of Brian Boru) who rules from Craig Liath (grey rock) in Co. Clare.
		We may conclude, then, that within the fairy lore of Scotland and Ireland are to be found the remnants of the old pagan religion, with gods and goddesses being remembered as the guardian ancestors of the clans.
