With the advent of the Combine harvester, the old-fashioned, long-stemmed and hollow-stemmed wheat varieties were replaced with knee-high, pithy varieties.

The word “Tömte” is misspelled: it should be “Tomte”. The explaintation of them as “Yule dwarfs” is also wrong. Please read Wikipedia’s entry about tomte.

Just a comment about eidolon
eid - comes up in Norwegian to mean owned, so locally may have meant the grain was owned by "spirits" and some type of arrangement is made to trade.
Eid Ul Adha festival of sacrifice in Arabic culture
Something to think about, and possibly add more info, I was curious to the background.

My main point is that the word tomte was misspelled. O and Ö are considered different letters in Swedish so the difference is considered important to us Swedes.

The article says "dolly may be a corruption of idol or may have come directly from the Greek word eidolon (apparition); that which represents something else". These both seem a bit far-fetched to me: people don't call their own religious items "idols", and "eidolon" would be a rather scholarly classical borrowing for agricultural peasants to use. Isn't it just "dolly", like a doll? Equinox ( talk) 14:55, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
