 LotR Fanatics Library: Founding of Arnor   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Elendil the Tall with four ships landed in the North, in the land of Lindon, realm of Gil-Galad, while his sons Isildur and Anàrion, with the remaining five ships, were driven along to the southern coasts, eventually landing up the Anduin and establishing the Kingdom of Gondor.
This kingdom was called Arnor, which is “royal land”, because, as being ruled directly by Elendil, High-King of the Númenoreans in Middle-Earth, it held precedence over the Southern Kingdom, Gondor, which he entrusted to his sons.
The Númenorean population of Arnor was never very numerous, but it seems that it preserved the purity of its ancestry, avoiding as much as possible intermarriages with the native population, contrary to what was soon to happen in Gondor.

 Encyclopedia of Arda: Seeing-stones
In appearance they were dark, perfectly smooth globes of various capabilities and sizes; some were small and portable, others so huge that they could not be lifted by a Man.
The Elves gave certain of these stones to the Númenóreans, and seven of these Númenórean stones were rescued from the Downfall of that island by Elendil and his sons.
So these seven were brought to Middle-earth, and the Dúnedain set them up at distant points in their lands: at Amon Sûl, Elostirion and Annúminas in the north, and at Osgiliath, Orthanc, Minas Anor and Minas Ithil in the south.

 Narsil, Sword of King Elendil, Lord of the Rings   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The sword Narsil is renowned in Middle Earth: it was wielded by King Elendil at the Battle of Dagorlad before the Black Gate of Mordor, during the Last Alliance of Elves and Men.
King Elendil was cast down and Narsil broke beneath him, but Elendil's son Isildur took up the hilt and its remaining shard of blade and so cut the ring from Sauron's hand.
What is commendable about many of the sword designs in the LOTR movies is that they appear as if made for real action; not like some of the truly fantastical, sometimes gaudy pieces that are floating around in the realms of cinema and collectible cutlery.
