The descent of the major branches of the race of Younger Children. Note that, though the Drúedain and Hobbits are established as belonging to branches of the race of Men, and must therefore have descended from the first people to have awoken in Hildórien, the precise details of their descent remain unknown. The descent of the Northmen as rather more involved than this simple diagram can show. For more on this subject, see the entry for 'Northmen'. Men, who awoke many thousands of years after the Elder Children, the Elves.
