Eloi

for information on 'Saint Eloi', the Christian apostle to Flanders, see Saint Eligius The Eloi are one of the two post-human races in H. G. Wells' novel The Time Machine. In the year AD 802701, humanity has evolved into two separate species: the Eloi and the Morlocks. The Eloi are the rich, attractive upper class which lives in luxury on the surface of the earth. The Morlocks live underground, tending machinery and occassionally surfacing to eat Eloi. Each class evolved (or degenerated) from different social classes as humans, a theme that reflects upon Wells' sociopolitical opinions. The progressive rock band Eloy are named after the race.
