Tamerlane was a Scot who was, sometime in the late Middle Ages, said to have met the queen of fairy and to have been brought down into the depths of fairyland. There is a pleasing version of the story sung by Sandy Denny and Fairport Convention. For a beautiful description of a visit with evocative photographs visit the faery folklorist.
