Lilliputians

Recommended Posts

I read in a very interesting encyclopedia by a French author that the Lilliputians, who now usually perform in the circus, are the people who lived in the forests of Hungary and were expelled from there. I was extremely surprised by this information. Any ideas about this? I note that Lilliputians are not dwarfs. Dwarfs have a congenital disease and they have a disproportionately developed body, unlike midgets.

Maybe small people lived in forest of Hungry but they would not have been called that . Lilliputians are a modern name and  fiction from a book ; Lilliputians from the imaginary land of Lilliput .

 

However, that does not mean small people did not live in Hungary forest .  In the Queensland rainforest in Australia, we also had 'small people' living there ;

Lois here's a thought... take your infantile bigotry, racism and thinly veiled anti-semitic beliefs and antics  somewhere else.

I just have Semitic beliefs. You are simply lying.
