Topic: Enedwaith


  
  Enedwaith - Tolkien Gateway
The boundaries of the Enedwaith, which is Sindarin for 'Middle-region' as well as 'Middle-folk', were defined in the north by the rivers Gwathló and Glanduin, to the east by the Hithaeglir, and to the west by Belegaer, 'The Great Sea'.
During the First and early Second Age Enedwaith was deeply forested, but the arrival of the timber-hungry Númenóreans, from the seventh century of the Second Age onwards, devastated the landscape.
The denuded forests of Enedwaith, and much of those to the north in Eriador, were finally destroyed by the War of the Elves and Sauron around 1700 S.A., during which much of what had survived the felling was burnt.

The life span of the Enedwaith is shorter than that of elves, but longer than that of humans.
The Enedwaith live in hidden communities in the forests of Mists of Illusion.
Enedwaith share the same Gods and Goddesses has the elves, although they may also worship the human One God.

 Wikipedia: Dunland
The Dunlendings were so-called Middle Men like the Rohirrim, but since they spoke a different language (related to the the Second House of Men, the Haladin, rather than the Bëorian/Marachian tongue which stood at the base of Adûnaic), they were not recognised as Middle Men by the Númenoreans of the Second Age.
Originally the inhabitants of the forested region of Enedwaith, they were grouped with the Minhiriathrim, another people which were related to the Haladin rather than the Bëorians or Marachians.
Guarding the Gap of Rohan was the fortress of Isengard, where a hereditary guard watched for Gondor.

 Restoration-Girithron 47
Several of HAM subjects were members of the Convention (Lord Enedwaith held membership #1), and through the kindness of the Convention committee, subjects who did not have Convention memberships were admitted to the facilities for the Council-General.
In addition to Their Graces, the Elder, Lord Enedwaith and the Secretary of State, other Councillors present were Adanedhel, as a representative of Esgaroth, and the Worshippfull Lady Hunnewell of Tuckborough, N.O.M., Mayor of Caras Anduinad.
Lord Enedwaith was of the opinion that the Council need not act to appoint such a commission: the Steward, His Lordship thought, was competent to do so on his own authority.

 Tharbad
Tharbad was jointly built by the Dúnedain of Arnor and Gondor during the early Third Age where the Great South Road that connected Gondor with Arnor crossed the river Gwathló with a great bridge.
Tharbad formed the northern-most outpost of Gondor and the southern-most outpost of Arnor, built at the north of Enedwaith and partially in Minhiriath.
By the time of the War of the Ring the great bridge had been destroyed, and the river had to be crossed by way of a dangerous ford made out of the ruins.

 Dunland: society
The folk of Minhiriath fled to the cape of Eryn Vorn, the folk of Enedwaith to the eastern mountains ‘where afterwards was Dunland’.
Deprived of their old homes, the displaced people of Enedwaith would have been forced to modify their methods of farming to cope with the change in terrain.
The next reference to Enedwaith and its inhabitants in Tolkien’s text is during a much later period: the days of the Kings in Gondor.

 Encyclopedia of Arda: Enedwaith   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
In the years after their founding, Enedwaith lay between Arnor to the north and Gondor to the south, and so the people who lived here were known as the 'middle-folk'.
Though Enedwaith did not belong to either Kingdom, it was jointly administered by the Dúnedain, and the Wild Men who lived here ultimately did so under their control.
Tolkien goes so far as to hint that, in the earliest days of the Two Kingdoms, Enedwaith was considered to fall within the boundaries of Gondor.

 Lond Daer - The Lord of the Rings Wiki - A Wikia wiki
Within a few centuries, the deforestation of the outlying regions Enedwaith and Minhiriath became cataclysmic, angering the local native population (ancestors of the Dunlendings), and they began to fight back with increasing ferocity, destroying the haven several times, and frequently burning the great wood-stores in 'hit-and-run' attacks.
By the time of the War of the Elves and Sauron in the middle of the Second Age, this 'New Haven' had become very well established, and its name had shifted over the intervening one thousand years to 'Lond Daer', the Great Haven.
Once its shipbuilding yards were no longer practicable, Lond Daer declined in importance, and the Númenórean hunger for ever more wealth shifted focus to the establishment of newer havens to the south, Pelargir and Umbar.

 TolkienWiki: Dunlendings
Men, said to be related to the Haladin, who at the time of the WotR dwelt in Enedwaith, in a fertile and pleasant land at the end of the MistyMountains.
But relations with the Men of Westernesse were soon strained, and some of the pre-Haladin folk of Enedwaith and Minhiriath threw in their lot with Sauron, while others escaped south or into dense woods (such as the Men of ErynVorn).
After the Battle of the Hornburg, when they were made aware of the lies of Saruman -- which had provoked them into joining the assault upon Rohan -- they made reparations to the Rohirrim by helping them to clear the battlefield, and made an undertaking to never again make war upon the Mark.

 Ethraid Engrin - Tolkien Gateway
In the early years of the Third Age, the northwest of Middle-earth was dominated by two mighty Númenórean Kingdoms, Arnor in the north and Gondor in the south.
A traveller journeying southward through Enedwaith along the North-South Road would eventually come to the point where it crossed the River Isen (then known by its Elvish name of 'Angren').
The crossing of the Fords of Isen—the Ethraid Engrin as they were known in those times—marked the point of entry into the southern land of Gondor.

Lord Enedwaith holds membership number 1 in the convention, which is to be held in late Urui (early August).
Nominations were then opened for the office of Lord President: Sir William Mendelsohn having declined a nomination, Lord Starkhorn was elected without opposition, moving from his fourth term in the Keepership to resume an office he first held in 7537.
In a surprise move, Lord Enedwaith was then nominated to be Lord Chancellor, and elected by acclamation.

 Waiting for a king like you   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Tharbad ("crossway") was situated on the Gwathlo River between Cardolan and Enedwaith, just south of where the Glanduin (the southern border-river of Eregion) flowed into the Gwathlo.
The Dunlendings, who were driven from Calenardhon into eastern Enedwaith by the Rohirrim in the last few centuries of the Third Age, were related to the Gwathuirim of Enedwaith.
But if an Arnorian prince was looking to Enedwaith in hope of establishing his own kingdom, Tarannon could have been motivated to subdue the region and thus deprive his kinsman of an opportunity.

The Dunlendings were originally from Enedwaith, on the Western shore of the River Isen.
During the five hundred and ninety-seven years of the Watchful Peace, the people who lived in Calenardhon dwindled in number, and the garrisons of that land were left to hereditary chiefs, forgotten by the Gondorians.
In 2510 of the Third Age, Cirion the Steward gifted Calenardhon to the Éothéod for the aid given to Gondor during the Battle of the Celebrant.

 Rhovanion Alliance - A Mod for The Battle For Middle-Earth   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The easternmost portion of the Enedwaith, or 'Middle Lands'.
It was not until Gondor abandoned this city in TA 2050 that the people and their land were renamed: both became known as Enedwaith "Middle-Folk, Middle Region", because they owed no allegiance to the North or South Kingdom.
When the days of the Kings ended in 1975 to 2050 and the waning of Gondor began, they ceased in fact to be subjects of Gondor; the Royal Road was unkept in Enedwaith, and the Bridge of Tharbad becoming ruinous was replaced only by a dangerous ford.

location of Enedwaith in Middle-earth marked in red
Tolkien, Enedwaith, also spelled Enedhwaith, originally referred to both a region of Middle-earth and the men that inhabited it, although the region Enedwaith retained that name even when the Enedwaith people were no more.

 The Last Alliance
During the Second Age, the mainland Drúedain became estranged from the pre-Dunlendings of Enedwaith.
They were driven from the White Mountains and from the coastlines of Enedwaith into the promontory of Andrast; a small segment also survived in the Forest of Anorien (eg.
After 2510 of the Third Age, the Drúedain were hunted by the Rohirrim, who were ignorant of the Drúedain's ancient past.

 [ Daily Tolkien ] Razing Arnor: How real were the Dunadan conspiracies?
Her homeland was not named by Tolkien but Chris Seeman, editor and publisher of Other Hands, suggests she may have come from Umbar.
Tarannon was the first of Gondor's ship-kings, and his conquests may or may not have been driven by personal ambition.
Cardolan, being closer to Enedwaith and controlling the sea-trade which must have passed through Tharbad, had better reason to want to be more like Gondor, or closer to Gondor, than Amlaith and the northern lords of Arnor.

 Razing Arnor: How real were the Dunadan conspiracies?
After all, Arnor really had few opportunities for conquest, and if Tarannon was the king who pacified Enedwaith Arnor's southern border would now be aligned fully with Gondor's.
The lands where Angmar would eventually rise were the only convenient prospect for conquest remaining, unless Arnor marched across the Misty Mountains in an effort to claim the Vales of Anduin, but that would mean marching armies past Elrond's front door.
They could have joined in the campaign(s) Tarannon led in Enedwaith and therefore played a role in pacifying a land which had threatened Arnor.

The Men of Bree, most northerly representatives of their race, were akin to most of the peoples of Minhiriath and Enedwaith as well as to the wild tribes of Ered Nimrais and Calenardhon who lived on Gondor's western frontier
When it became evident that Sauron had survived the Downfall of Numenor, Isildur concluded an alliance with at least one group of these men, but their king feared Sauron too much to fulfill his oath.
There were other men in Enedwaith, akin to the mountain-folk of Ered Nimrais and the Men of Bree, who had long opposed Numenorean incursions.

Bushbark and Boulderhead (An ent and a stone giant called an Ontor) were left outside of Néred, the capital of Enedwaith.
Because they were left outside, it is perfectly feasible that they decided to do something with their time.
The griffins automatically go where they're needed; it has been crafted into their species that they're drawn by the Valar through the spirit realm toward difficult situations to help solve them.
