Maybe some populations of our ancestors lived in competition (over food, etc.) with these smaller folk. Lacking size, the little people would have had to be pretty wiley to survive. That fits in pretty nice with the mythical imagery of The Little People.

Hmmm…now I’m wondering. Do you suppose they would sometimes swap out one of their babies with one of the Big People’s children? Why would they do that? (I never understood why fairies supposedly did it, either.)
