Who were the feens of tradition, and to what country and period are they to be assigned? |
The stories of Fin and his feens are full of references to their hunting exploits. |
If he is right in this, we cannot assume the Lochlan contingent as including the feens of Norway. |
But the seventeenth century is much too recent a date for studying the Gaelic accounts of the feens. |
The king of the feens was hailed in the country of the big men as a Troich. |
It is also remembered as a favourite hunting-ground of the feens. |
