Irish mythology: In the pseudo-history of Ireland called Lebor Gabala Erenn, or the Book of Invasions, the Fomorians were the enemies of the Tuatha De Danann, who in turn were a pre-Gaelic people who invaded Ireland.
The Tuatha De Danann later became one of the groups associated with the "fairy people" of Irish legend.
