 ~~The Five Great Battles of Beleriand~~ - www.ezboard.com
(later Ard Galen was called the Anfauglith) After the fire came hordes of orcs in multitudes that the Noldor had never seen before.
All the Hill Forts that had surrounded Angbad were destroyed in minutes and Ard Galen perished.
They created the Siege of Angbad, which lasted over 400 years, in which Beleriand was at peace, and it flourished and the population of the elves grew ever higher.

Beren left Tol Galen but once, to avenge the murder of Thingol on the Dwarves of Nogrod and recover the Silmaril.
On their return, they lived in isolation on Tol Galen with their son, Dior.
Their deeds of valor were the noblest of the Children of Iluvatar and were inspired by their love, the greatest ever known.

 The Story of Beren and Lúthien Lord of the Rings Fanatics Library
Then they withdrew to Ossiriand and lived in Tol Galen, the green Isle until the time appointed to them.
Then they came to Doriath and their coming was beyond joy to the people of the kingdom, but Melian perceived that she and her daughter were now parted beyond the end of the world, and her grief was the greatest that ever was.
Only once after that did Beren take up arms ­ to recover the Silmarils from the Dwarves that plundered Doriath and that Silmaril Luthien bore after.

They returned to Tol Galen, and "Lúthien wearing that necklace and that immortal jewel was the vision of greatest beauty and glory that has ever been outside the realm of Valinor."
Word came upon word to Tol Galen where dwelt Beren with Lúthien and their son Dior.
Dior, Thingol's heir, returned and built up Menegroth: But when Beren and Lúthien died, the Silmaril was sent to Dior and he kept it in despite of the sons of Fëanor, who came from their wandering upon hearing word of the Silmaril once again in Menegroth.

But their chief fortress was at Eithel Sirion in the east of Ered Wethrin, whence they kept watch upon Ard-galen; and their cavalry rode upon that plain even to the shadow of Thangorodrim, for from few their horses had increased swiftly, and the grass of Ard-galen was rich and green.
There for many years was the realm of Turgon the wise, son of Fingolfin, bounded by the sea, and by Ered Lómin, and by the hills which continued the walls of Ered Wethrin westward, from Ivrin to Mount Taras, which stood upon a promontory.
What I find odd about the distribution of the Ñoldorian kingdoms in ME is that the region in which Aegnor and Angrod dwell, seems to me to be the place where Morgoth would attack first, why is it then that it was one of the places that had the least Elves in there.

 Ard-galen
In the first days after the rising of the Sun, Ard-galen was a green plain with rich grass, reaching from Hithlum and the Ered Wethrin in the west to the Ered Luin in the east, and rising into highlands of Dorthonion in the south.
Tolkien, Ard-galen ("Green Region"), later Anfauglith, was the wide green plain that lay north of the highlands of Dorthonion and south of Morgoth's fortress of Angband in the Iron Mountains, in the First Age.
But the plain was laid waste by rivers of flame and poisonous gases in the Dagor Bragollach and renamed Anfauglith ("Gasping Dust").

They were clad in green in spring and summer, and the sound of their singing could be heard even across the waters of Gelion; wherefore the Noldor named that country Lindon, the land of music, and the mountains beyond they named Ered Lindon, for they first saw them from Ossiriand.

Upon the southern bank of Esgalduin, where it turned westward towards Sirion, were the Caves of Menegroth; and all Doriath lay east of Sirion save for a narrow region of woodland between the meeting of Teiglin and Sirion and the Meres of Twilight.
Finrod held the Pass of Sirion, and upon the isle of Tol Sirion in the midst of the river he built a mighty watch-tower, Minas Tirith; but after Nargothrond was made he committed that fortress mostly to the keeping of Orodreth his brother.

South of Nan-tathren was a region of meads filled with many flowers, where few folk dwelt; and beyond lay the marshes and isles of reed about the mouths of Sirion, and the sands of his delta empty of all living things save birds of the sea.
And the River Narog rose in the falls of Ivrin in the southern face of Dor-lómin, and flowed some eighty leagues ere he joined Sirion in Nan-tathren, the Land of Willows.

The men under Húrin and Huor made their final stand at the Fens of Serech, which lie to the southwest of Ard-Galen, and there were wiped out, all save Húrin, who after a mighty final effort was finally taken alive to Angband, where he was held captive for many years.
Don't forget, too, that the distance from Serech to Angband was many miles ("Before the gates of Angband filth and desolation spread southward for many miles over the wide plain of Ard-galen…" The Silmarillion, Chapter 14 "Of Beleriand and Its Realms"; c.f.
Because the text ended abruptly and was incomplete, CT says that "In the published Silmarillion I excluded it, apart from using Húrin's vain attempt to reach Gondolin…" (WotJ p.298), but the short passage quoted above is obviously indicative of JRRT's latest intentions regarding this tale.

The text clearly states that the sun was "westering" as Huor fell, that after that Húrin alone remained, and that after that, he slew seventy trolls, and that after that he slew Orcs until the numbers of the dead finally buried him and he was captured.

After the Dagor Aglareb and the 'Siege of Angband' the horses in Beleriand multiplied and feeded on the green grass of Ard-galen.
He was yet young and scarce half-grown, for long and slow is the life of the dragons, but the Elves fled before him to Ered Wethrin and Dorthonion in dismay; and he defiled the fields of Ard-galen.
One noteable use of mounted troops was Fingon& famous encirclement of the dragon Glaurung (at his first appearance) with Mounted Archers - they harrassed him (and his not fully hardened skin) with arrows until Glaurung finally fled back to Angband.
