Interesting. Thank you. My speculation on Bombadil was based solely on his living in the forest and being as tall as a tree (if I remember correctly. And I probably don't!) Treebeard is kind of in the same category as Bombadil and Beorn then- no one know what they are or from whence they came. The source of their power is unknown and they all seem to be immortal. (right?)
