Re: origin of hobbits

I am afraid I do not see them as a rising theme in any Ainur music.

Two solutions then come to my mind. Firstly being a technical person I would obviously say the Hobbits are somewhere between Man and Animal on the evolution scale. Many parallels can be made to both...

Secondly why could Hobbits not have been created for the simple purpose of taking care of the shire as good gardeners they are. Or is that a little too simple ?
