Re: This might be sort of off topic but for people who are more well-versed in Tolkien

Yeah I don't remember exactly where I could cite it from (is it mentioned in the appendices?), but it seemed clear from what I read that the hobbits were a sub-group of humans.

Though I suppose that doesn't preclude them from possibly having a favorite Vala, like the Elves have Varda/Elbereth, and that could maybe be Yavanna. Tolkien was always very adamant about keeping religious practices for the characters within middle-earth very informal and un-organized, and only including religious content in the actual canonical framework of the fictional universe as portrayed in the Silmarillion.

I always thought the implication with Hobbits was that they were a natural adaptation to the other humanoid Free Peoples of their coming to Middle-Earth. The three historic strains of Hobbit - Stoor, Fallohide and Harfoot - strongly mirror Men, Elves and Dwarves, and ended up converging into a single race with the odd strongly throwback individual or line (Tooks in particular tending to be noticably Fallohide). If they seem ideally adapted to their time and place, that's probably no accident - they're the closest thing the east has to an indigenous humanoid race.
