	Edain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the fiction of J.R.R. Tolkien, the Edain were those Men (humans) who made their way into Beleriand in the First Age, and were friendly to the Elves.
		The Sindarin word Edain, singular Adan (Quenya Atani, Atan) literally meant Second People, and originally referred to all Men, but later it only applied to the Men of Beleriand and their descendants.
		The Edain were tall and fair and strong; their spirits were noble; they were fierce in war, and they shunned all dealings with evil.

		Edain shrugs back "As I said, at times it's nice to just be alone, to be able to shut everything else out" rocko shakes his head.

		Edain shrugs "Maybe, but either way sitting here and talking about it isn't going to help is it and even more unfortunatly, I'm late for class." The sarcasm of the last part of the sentance is in complete contrast to the beginning.

		Some of the Edain, too, had returned to Eriador in two or three groups, settling among those of their kin who had not crossed the mountains.
		Although the Edain had entered Beleriand 300 years earlier, not all seem to have left Eriador, and in fact at least two groups fled the wars in the west to return to Eriador.
		It would be strange for the Edain of Eriador to have established contact with the Eldar of Lindon soon after the departure of the Dúnedain and to have heard nothing of their sailing.

		The Edain are the analogs of the Aryans - purged, Tolkien hoped, of the association with Hitlerism.
		After the 'War of Wrath' Edain were rewarded for their loyalty...they were given Numenor and Elros(brother of Elrond) became their first king.
		It all depends on how you see it, Edain is sindarin and means the same as Atani, so in that essence all men are edain, but then there's the three houses of Edain and these are the houses of Bëor, Haleth and Hador.

		And in all the land was no woman so lovely to look upon as the fair Edain, and the fame of her beauty came to the ears of the great and powerful chief and king of the Tuatha-de-Danann, Midar by name.
		So all being secure, as he thought, he took his place at the feast with the beautiful Edain beside him, all glittering with jewels and a golden crown on her head, and the revelry went on till midnight.
		Then he gently put his arm round the queen's waist, and drew her up from her royal throne, and went forth with her through the midst of all the guests, none hindering, and the king himself was like one in a dream, and could neither speak nor move.

	Intermarriage in the universe of LOTR - Pet Sins Webzine May 2004
		In Unfinished Tales, the wicked Easterling Brodda forces the Edain woman Aerin to marry him, but he is eventually killed by Turin, a kinsman of Aerin, in revenge for the Easterlings' oppression of the Edain.
		The justification for the murder is the uppity aspirations of the insubordinate vassal.
		One might argue that perhaps the Edain were honored for their wisdom in choosing good over evil, and their strength in battling the devil, not for their racial makeup, but in Tolkien's universe, wisdom, strength, and race seem to go hand in hand.

	Welcome to Brethil (Beleriand MUSH)
		In the year 311 FA (First Age), the Second House of the Edain entered Beleriand, one year after Finrod encountered the Beor (The First House of the Edain).
		In the year 370 FA, the survivors were lead by Haleth to Estolad, then moved on past the dangerous land of Nan Dungortheb to Talath Dirnen and finally Brethil which was granted by Thingol of Doriath, after he was persuaded by Finrod Felagund, on the condition that they defend the Crossing of Teiglin.
		While they prefer to live their lives quietly, somewhat isolated from the perils of the outside world, they are often engaged in combat against Orcs and other evil creatures who dare trespass.

	Human Races in Middle Earth - Pet Sins Webzine May 2004
		A land was made for the Edain to dwell in, neither part of Middle-earth nor of Valinor, for it was sundered from either by a wide sea; yet it was nearer to Valinor...
		Nevertheless, though the skin color and facial features of the Edain races are never explicitly described, it is quite clear that Tolkien envision the Rohirrim, and by extension, their Edain ancestors and Dunedain cousins, as white Europeans, not just racially, but also culturally.
		And after the victory of the Lords of the West those of the evil Men who were not destroyed fled back into the east, where many of their race were still wandering in the unharvested lands, wild and lawless, refusing alike the summons of the Valar and of Morgoth.

		In fact, the Edain lived in Lindon for about 35 yeas before they began to set sail across the Sea, and the migration to Numenor is said in The Peoples of Middle-earth to have lasted at least 50 years.
		The Edain of Eriador settled in the Hills of Evendim, the North Downs, the Weather Hills, and the lands between them as far west as the Baranduin river.
		These Edain buried their dead in mounds, and most likely lived in fortified towns and villages, raising sheep, cattle, and (very possibly, the few Marachians in Eriador) horses.

		The Bowmen of the Edain were first taught the Art of Archery from the various Avari they met on their travels to Beleriand.
		The Rider is a rather new concept to the Edain, mainly influenced by the effective Noldorin cavalry.
		Armed with a long and lethal spear and a round shield the Edainic Riders were mainly used as shock troops that at first out-flanked the enemy and later harrassed their sides and rear.

		The humans known as Edain (or singularly Adan), who are in some places also known as 'Fathers of Men' or 'Elf-friends' were the first to enter Beleriand.
		The first of the three groups of humans who comprise the Edain to enter Beleriand were those who followed their chieftain Balan, who later took the name of 'Bëor' (Quenya: 'Vassal') because of his devoted service to Finrod Felagund.
		Tolkien describes them as "short and broad, long and strong in the arm, and grew much hair on the face and breast; their locks were dark as were their eyes, and their skins were sallow or swart.

		Fingolfin therefore gave to him the lordship of Dor-lómin, and into that land he gathered most of the people of his kin, and became the mightiest of the chieftains of the Edain.
		In his house only the Elven-tongue was spoken; but their own speech was not forgotten, and from it came the common tongue of Númenor.

	SF-Fandom - 3 Houses of Men?
		The Numenoreans are supposed to have been descended exclusively from descendants of the 3 Houses who were said to have fought with the Host of Valinor in the War of Wrath and then followed Elros to Numenor in the initial migration early in the 2nd Age.
		Other Edain did not go; other peoples of particularly the west of ME were descended at least in part from these.
		The idea of the presence of Drúedain among the Edain in Beleriand is from ‘Of Dwarves and Men’, but in that text the Folk of Haleth are said to be the Third House.
