- Gnome King Kyrië is, according to local folklore, the leader of the legendary gnomes which lived in the Campine region of the province of North Brabant, the Netherlands. These gnomes had their base in the village of Hoogeloon. From Hoogeloon the gnomes often made journeys in the neighbourhood. According to tradition the Gnome King Kyrië lived on the Kerkakkers in the Kabouterberg (Gnome Mountain), a tumulus located in the heathland of Hoogeloon. The gnomes of the Campine were helpful creatures who help mostly the farmers and the households in the neighborhood. The came by night and did not want to be seen by people. If people did see them, they were punished by the gnomes. One story tells of an inquisitive farmer who spied on the gnomes and later became blind in one eye.
- De Kabouterkoning Kyrië is volgens oude plaatselijke kabouterverhalen de leider van kabouters die in de Kempen leefden. Deze kabouters hadden hun hoofdkwartier in Hoogeloon. Vanuit Hoogeloon ondernam het kaboutervolkje regelmatig tochten in de omgeving. Volgens de overlevering woonde Kabouterkoning Kyrië op de Kerkakkers in de Kabouterberg, een van de grafheuvels, gelegen in de hei van Hoogeloon. De kabouters in de Kempen waren behulpzame wezentjes die vooral de boeren en de huizen in de buurt hielpen. Ze deden dit vooral 's nachts en wilden hierbij absoluut niet door mensen bekeken worden. Als mensen dit toch deden werden zij gestraft door de kabouters. Eén verhaal vertelt over een nieuwsgierige boer die toch stiekem de kabouters bespied had en daarna blind werd aan één oog.
