What is a "gnome"?
A gnome is a mythical creature often depicted as a small, human-like being with a distinctive appearance, including a long beard and a pointed hat. Gnomes are commonly associated with nature and are said to live underground or in forests, where they are known for their craftsmanship, particularly in mining and metalworking. In folklore and fantasy literature, gnomes are usually portrayed as helpful and wise, though they can also be secretive or mischievous. They are often seen as guardians of natural treasures or protectors of the earth's hidden riches.
