Aes Side

Aos sí ( [eːsˠ ˈʃiː] ahoskatua) bere forma zaharrenean Aes sídhe [[eːsˠ ˈʃiːə])  irlandar mitologiako eta Eskoziako mitologiako (non gehienetan Sìth idazten den, baina berdin ahoskatzen den) naturaz gaindiko arraza bat da, germaniar jatorriko mitologiako eta folkloreko maitagarriekin edo elfoekin konparatu daitekeena. 

Lurpean ireluen muinoetan bizi omen dira, mendebaldeko itsasoaren betaldean edo gizakien munduarekin nahastuta dagoen mundu ikusezin batean. Mundu hori, Lebor Gabála Érenn epopeian, unibertso paralelo baten izaera ematen zaio, non aos sí-ak bizidunen artean ibiltzen diren. Irlanderaz, aos sí izenak "muinoetako jendea edo lur-muluetako" esan nahi du (mendixkak "sidhe" hitzak, lur-mukuluHistoriaurreko tumuluak izan ohi dira. edo muinotxo esan nahi du irlandera zaharrean). Irlandera modernoan, mendixketako jendeari daoine sídhe ere esaten zaio [ˈd̪ˠiːnʲə ˈʃiːə]. Eskoziako mitologian daoine sìth esaten zaie.James MacKillop, A Dictionary of Celtic Mythology (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1998), s.v. daoine sídhe.  Arbasoak, naturaren izpirituak edo jainkosa eta jainkoak direla esan izan da.Evans Wentz, W. Y. (1966, 1990) The Fairy-Faith in Celtic Countries. Gerrards Cross, Colin Smythe Humanities Press  

Ingelesezko bigarren ete hirugarren mailako iturri batzuk, horien artean W. B. Yeats. idazle ezagun eta eraginkorrak,"the sídhe" (literalki, "lur-mukuluak") esaten diete, besterik gabe.

 Folklore gaelikoan 
Ipuin gaeliko askotan, aos delakoak  Tuatha Dé Danann ("Dana jainkosaren herria"), irlandar mitologiako jainko eta jainkotutako arbasoen geroagoko bertsio literarioak dira. Zenbait iturriren arabera, Tuatha Dé Danann familiatik bizirik irten zirenak Beste Mundura erretiratu ziren, Míl Espáine pertsonaiaren seme-alaba inbaditzaileengandik ihes egiteko.  Tuatha Dé Danannek, milesiarren aurrean amore eman ondoren, erretiratzea eta lurpean bizitzea erabaki zuten. Geroago idatzitako interpretazioetan, Tuatha Dé Danannen tribu bakoitzari bere muinotxoa eman zitzaion. 

Herri-sinesmen eta ohituretan, aos sí-ak, eskaintzekin baretzen dira sarritan, eta kontuz ibili beharra dago haiek haserretu edo iraindu nahi ez baditugu. Askotan ez dira zuzenean aipatzen, eta "Auzokide onak", "Jende maitagarria" edo "Jendea" deitzen zaie. Beraientzat ohikoenak diren izenek, aos sí, aes sídhe, daoine sídhe (singular duine sídhe) eta daoine sìth, "mendixketako jendea" esan nahi dute, hitzez hitz. Aos sí-ak, oro har, izugarri ederrak dira, baina beldurgarriak eta itsusi-itsusiak ere izan daitezke. 

Aos sí-ak beren bizilekuen zaindari basatiak dira, izan muino bat, sorgin-eraztun bat, zuhaitz berezi bat (sarritan elorria ) edo izan loch (aintzira) edo baso berezi bat. Uste denez, espazio horiek urratuz gero, aos sí-ek mendeku hartuko dituzte, beren etxeetan sartu diren pertsonak edo objektuak ateratzeko ahaleginean. Folklorean aldatutako haurraren kontakizunetan ager daitezke. kasu horietan, aos sí  ume arrotzak bahitzen dituzte eta euren seme-alaben ordezkatzen dituzte, transgresioa zigortzeko. 

Urte sasoi jakin batzuei eta eguneko ordu jakin batzuei lotuta egoten dira. Beste Mundu gaelikoa (Tír na nÓg) eta gizakien mundua hurbilago dago iluntze eta egunsentiko orduetan,eta une horietan, errazago aurki daitezke izaki horiek. Samhain, Beltane eta Uda erdiko jai egunak ere  aos sí -ekin erlazionatua daude.

 Sidhe-ak 
Sidhe-ak Irlandako paisaia zipriztintzen duten muino edo tumuluak dira. Irlandera modernoan, hitza Sí da; gaeliko eskoziarrean, berriz, sìth da, eta irlandera zaharrean, berriz, side, eta singularra, berriz, sid. Ondoren, ingelesez idatzitako zenbait testutan, sidhe hitza oker erabiltzen da sídhe muinoak eta muinoetan bizi diren ireluentzat. Bina testu zaharrenetan sidh hitza bertan bizi diren Beste Munduko izakien "jauregi, patio, korridore edo egoitzak" dira zehazki.Dictionary of the Irish Language: síd, síth  Sídhe hauetako asko hileta-tumulu zaharrak direla jakiteak, aos sí-ak Irlandako okupatzaile aurezeltak zirela teoria babesten lagundu zuen.O'Curry, E. (1861), Lectures on Manuscript Materials, Dublin , 504 or., hemen aipatua: Evans-Wentz 1966,  291 or. 

Beste batzuek uste dute istorio horiek Greziako eragin kulturalaren mitologiaren ekoizpena dela.  Hesiodoren Lanak eta egunak lana izango litzateke eragin handiena izan zuena. Idazlan horretan Greziako herritarren oinarrizko oinarri morala eta landatzeko teknikak erretratatu zituen Hesiodok eta greziar jainkoek sortu gizakien arrazak deskribatu zituen. Hala ere, iritzi horietako asko ez dira oso sinesgarritzat jotzen, eta eragina bi kulturen amankomuneko testuinguru indoeuroparretik eratortzen diren antzeko oinarri moralak izan zituztelako azal daiteke.

 Motak 
Banshee edo bean sídhe hitzak (antzinako irlanderaz: ban síde), "sidhe-etako emakumea" esan nahi duena, Irlandako edozein naturaz gaindiko emakumeri egin dakioke erreferentzia uste dute batzuk. Eskoziar mitologian bere kontrapartea bean sìth da (batzuetan bean-sìdh idatzita). Badira beste aldaera batzuk ere, hala nola, bean nighe eskoziarra (hiltzera kondenatuta dagoen pertsonaren arropa edo armadura odoleztatua garbitzen duen garbitzaile bat), leanan sídhe ("sorgin-maitalea"), cat-sith (sorgin-katua) eta cù sìth (sorgin-txakurra).Dictionary of the Irish Language: síd, síth eta ben 

Sluagh sidhe-ak, "oste feerikoak", batzuetan irlandar eta eskoziar tradizioan airean dauden espiritu ugari talde bat da, agian hildako madarikatuak, gaiztoak edo urduriak. Siabhrak (ingelesez sheevra esaten zaio) espiritu txiki horietako bat izan daitezke, gaitzak eta gaiztakeriak eragiteko joera duten horietakoak. Hala ere, Ulsterren abesti ezagun batek "sheevra" hitza erabiltzen du "izpiritu" edo "maitagarri" bati erreferentzia egiteko.MacKillop, James (2004) Dictionary of Celtic Mythology Joyce, P.W.  A Social History of Ancient Ireland, 1 lib.,  271 or."The Gartan Mother's Lullaby" 1904an argitaratua, The Songs of Uladh-en, Seosamh MacCathmhaoilen letra (Joseph Campbell)
