:I dispute that. The Index to Unfinished Tales has this to say for the entry for Púkel-men: Name in Rohan for the images on the road to Dunharrow, but also used as a general equivalent to Drúedain. See Old Púkel-land. "Old Púkel-land" is defined (under the Sindarin name Drúwaith Iaur) as The Old wilderniss of the Drû-folk. Nothing "implied" here, it is made quite clear Púkel-men are Drûg. -- Jordi·✆ 20:06, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

message: "The term Púkel-men used by the Rohirrim was also applied to the fearsome statues constructed by the Drúedain to guard important places and homes; some evidently had the power to come to life in a fashion similar to golems." - where does this claim about them being like golems come from? 86.178.26.47 (talk) 21:53, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

message: I propose that Ghân-buri-Ghân be merged here. He is a minor character who only appears briefly. There is a huge overlap between the two articles. This was also suggested at the AfD discussion in 2010, but there was no consensus.--Jack Upland (talk) 02:36, 2 December 2019 (UTC)

message: Para. 2: "The Drúedain are based on the mythological woodwoses, the wild men of the woods of Britain and Europe.": where does this come from? Except for the term "woodwose", these characters seem to me to be manifestly and obviously based much more on the trope of "noble savage", as detailed later in the article. However, if true, a citation of the source of the statement is in order. Hlingler (talk) 07:45, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  The Rohirrim called them Woses, describing them as "the Wild Men of the Woods"; this is cited in the article. Tom Shippey, also cited, links this to Tolkien's philology and Leeds street address. I've repeated both citations in the lead for you. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:00, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
