'''Cave swallow men''' are humanoid versions of the common [[cave swallow]] and one of the [[Creature|races]] of tribal [[animal people]] who can be encountered in [[caverns]]. They stand at roughly half the size of a [[dwarf]].

Cave swallow men  live in small tribes equipped with wooden [[spear]]s and [[blowgun]]s which may be coated in [[Syndrome|poison]], making them a threat to civilian [[dwarves]] who may need to cross their territory. They are also capable of flight, which makes them marginally harder to hit than other animal people, though an equipped [[military]] squad can make quick work of them. They can invade the caverns with very large groups, comparable in size or even bigger than surface sieges, and usually spawn with metal spears and shields (including steel). If such an attack is defeated, their equipment can be smelted to provide metal to a fortress which otherwise lacks it. They can also have leather armor. Because they are hidden when they spawn in the caverns on the edges of the map, be very careful when sending dwarves there.

Some dwarves [[Preferences|like]] cave swallow men for their ''coloration''.
