There is an animal called autholops, an exceedingly fierce animal; until the hunters are unable to catch it. It has long horns in the shape of a saw, so that it is able to saw very large and high trees. And when it is thirsty, it goes to the river Aracani and drinks water.

The origin is unknown. The word superficially resembles ᾰ̓́νθος (ánthos) + ὤψ (ṓps) and some older authorities suggested this as the etymology, but there is reason to think it is instead a corruption of some other, possibly foreign, word.

huldre

Learned borrowing from Norwegian hulder, with the same meaning.

All these things, it was said, must have a cause, and from ignorance of nature, joined to superstition and a lively imagination, the idea suggested itself of conjuring up beings, to whom all these phenomena might be ascribed, and who, according to the places of sojourn assigned them, were called Forest-trolls, Huldres, Mountain-trolls, Vættir, Elves, Dwarfs, Nisser, Mares, etc.

1851, Benjamin Thorpe, Northern Mythology, volume II, page xiii:

One time a huldre was present at a gathering, where everyone wanted to dance with the pretty stranger, but in the midst of the merriment, the young fellow who was dancing with her, caught sight of her long tail.

1896, William A. Craigie, Scandinavian Folk-lore, page 167:

(Norwegian folklore) A type of supernatural being in the shape of a beautiful woman with a cow's tail.

In Norway, the Huldre drive cattle before them, which are as blue as they are themselves.

1828, T. Crofton Croker, Fairy Legends and Traditions of the South of Ireland, volume 3, page 138:

"Well, the first time I came across the huldre, I was about eight or nine years old, and it was somewhere up on the main road between Bjerke and Mo."

1886, Peter Christen Asbjørnsen, translated by H.L. Brækstad, Folk and Fairy Tales, page 27:

The mention of the tail relates the wood-fairy to the Huldre who were very beautiful except for a long tail which they always tried to hide, as the Wood Elves hid their hollow back.

1978, Katherine M. Briggs, The Vanishing People, page 76:

'I would have things as they were in all the days of my life,' answered Denethor, 'and in the days of my longfathers before me: to be the Lord of this City in peace, and leave my chair to a son after me, who would be his own master and no wizard's pupil.

1955, J. R. R. Tolkien, “The Pyre of Denethor”, in The Return of the King:

Not until I could no longer feel behind me the contamination that was the temple where the Warlock's longfather had ruled did I pause to clean myself again with dust.

1982, Ardath Mayhar, Warlock's Gift, page 65:

If you were to walk among them, O cherished Becca, as our own longfather did, who himself ran and played in the old man's field, you would be dazzled by their beauty, just as our longfather was, for they grow higher and ever higher, and brighter and ever brighter.

2005, Gene Wolfe, “The Old Woman Whose Rolling Pin Is the Sun”, in Innocents Aboard: New Fantasy Stories, page 43:

Three kings ago, my longfather taught the Everran lords that a king is not a corsair's figurehead.

Ihm verwandt ist der Schrat, (ahd. Scrat) ein wilder, zottiger, rauher Waldgeist dem römischen Faun und Silvanus, dem griechischen Satyr vergleichbar.

Related to him is the bugbear (OHG. Scrat), a wild, shaggy, rough forest spirit comparable to the Roman faun and Silvanus or the Greek satyr.

Even though the later episode 'Doppelgangland' (Buffy 3.16) suggests that the 'Wishverse' exists parallel to the Buffyverse and that characters can move from one parallel universe to another by magic, none of the characters except vengeance demon Anyaka can remember anything about the other world.

2005, Gaby Allrath, “Life in Doppelgangland: Innovative Character Conception and Alternate Worlds in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel”, in Gaby Allrath, Marion Gymnich, editors, Narrative Strategies in Television Series, pages 144–145:

In the Wishverse, many of the good characters have been turned bad or are dead.
