Post subject:  Similarities

the idea is to inspect the similarities of kalevala & tolkien worlds or just facts..

Most notable is the creator gods name:

Tolkien`s in Illûvatar

And In Kalevala it`s Ilmatar...

Secondly:

Väinämöinen the son of Ilmatar has the power to affect others with his voice and singing(can also be seen as spellcasting since he sang against the younger and more arrogant Jouhikainen making him to sink in the a swamp)

but back to the matter at hand, his voice and speech

whom has his voice as his greatest asset in Tolkiens world? Saruman! :-D

If you find anymore then tell me all tough there are... such as Sampo and the ring, all tough in Kalevala they only try to steal the sampo not to destroy it...

I know that the story of Kullervo from Kalevala was tied to the story of Turin... That whole brother-sister thing and the ending of it...
