: This small item has bothered or rather irritated me for some time. Basically, which is the eldest race of these three groups - who all claim to be around first.
: 1...Elves
: 2...Ents
: 3...Tom Bombadil ?
: I know this isn't strictly important to the stories, it's just a cause of disagreement between myself and a colleague.
: ( I say elves - Am I right ? )
: Thanks for any replies .....If the speculation that Bombadil is a Maia (or Aule!) is correct then he would be older than either Elves or Ents.
