	Rohan
		The new land of the Eotheod was at the source of the Anduin.
		On April 15, the Riders of the Eotheod arrived at the Field of Celebrant, between Lothlorien and the River Limlight, and found the northern army of Gondor in trouble.
		The new land of the Eotheod came to be called Rohan - meaning "Land of Horses" - and the people were called the Rohirrim - meaning "Horse-lords." They called themselves the Eorlingas in honor of Eorl, and they called their land the Mark of the Riders or the Riddermark or simply the Mark.

	Rivers of Middle-earth
		The Eotheod first came to dwell between the Gladden Fields and the Carrock on the west side of the River in 1856, and in 1977 they relocated north to live near above the source of the Anduin.
		The Men of the Eotheod came to the aid of Gondor at the Battle of the Field of Celebrant and were given the land of Rohan as a reward.
		During the War of the Ring at the end of the Third Age, Gondor was threatened by both the forces of Sauron east of the Anduin and the fleets of the Corsairs from Umbar on the Bay of Belfalas to the south.

	VN Boards - that Eotheod place
		In all probability the Eotheod were most likely modelled on the Huns, whose tribal society was substantially altered to become a militaristic one.
		Since the Eotheod started out as soldiers, and since they tried for 100 years to win back their lands, they would have established a very strong militaristic tradition.
		As their population grew, and as they experience several centuries of relative peace, their society would have evolved, and though there doesn't seem to be a clear distinction between Riders (warriors) and other men of the Eotheod in Eorl's time, his mobilization of the entire nation to help Gondor seems to be unusual.

	~Rohan~ (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The Kingdom of Rohan, meaning "horse-land", was founded in 2510 of the Third Age of the Sun after the Battle of the Field of Celebrant.
		During this battle a wandering race of golden-haired horsemen called the Eotheod came to the rescue of the Men of Gondor and turned the tide of battle.
		Rohan largely consisted of wide grasslands, horse plains and farmlands bordered by the River Anduin in the east, the White Horn Mountains in the south, The Misty Mountains and Fangorn Forest in the north.

		They licked their wounds and made secret alliance with the people of Khand already keeping Gondor busy at its Southern borders began to harass the Eotheod and Forthwini warned Gondor that the Wainriders were recovering from their fear and weakness and plotted on revenge.
		The friendship between the Eotheod and Gondor remained though Gondor were concerned when the Eotheod removed into the far North, they had been allies and the Eotheod had contributed much of their blood to the people of Gondor and kept the Northen and eastern borders free of evil.
		Eorl heard him and came to his aid with a large host of riders when all hope was lost, and then the fortune of the Battle of the field of Celebrant was reversed.

	How did Tolkien actually portray the Rohirrim?
		Whatever diversity the ancestors of the Eotheod once may have known (as various tribes or clans) was therefore lost through the centuries.
		But there is no evidence that their numbers had been increased by additional migrations from other northern peoples (Northmen continued to live in at least two parts of Mirkwood and at least two regions along the Celduin).
		Hence, the Eotheod who migrated south to Calenardhon were a homogenous people unlike the Anglo-Saxons and Scandinavians, and unlike the Franks they did not settle among other peoples or conquer other tribes.

	Third Age: The Eorlingas
		The Eotheod were great horsemen and sometime allies of Gondor, driven from their homes by war around 1856 (see Northmen).
		At the last possible moment, a host of Eotheod riders swept onto the battlefield of Celebrant under the command of Eorl the Young.
		The tide of the battle was reversed and the enemy was routed.

	How did Tolkien actually portray the Rohirrim? — Merp.com Website
		Rohan was founded by a single tribe (the Eotheod) who migrated south to help defend the kingdom of Gondor in exchange for a wider land to replace their own.
		The Eotheod are not said to have carried any beliefs or gods with them out of the North.
		Their cavalry forces were thus quite different from the forces of the Eotheod and Rohirrim of the Third Age.

	Mounted Convoy of Rohan \| The Eotheod
		Frumgar led the Eotheod northward to a new home.
		Cirion asked the Eotheod to come to Gondor's aid against an imminent invasion by a hostile race of Men from the East called the Balchoth.
		In return, Eorl swore an oath to remain Gondor's ally and come to their aid in time of need.

		The collector who commissioned this figure of Eotheod Ranger has asked us to make a batch of 100 figures in addition to his first batch of 30 figures.
		The Éothéod renamed themselves Eorlingas or 'followers of Eorl', but in Sindarin they became known as the Rohirrim, or Horse-lords, and their country became known as Rohan, the Riddermark.

		Then after a long while after the war, the Eotheod had not been clearly recognized by the men of Gondor.
		By the time the revolts were over the Gondorians really did not really realize what help the Eotheod gave to the them, though the Gondorians were supposed to help the Eotheod, the Eotheods had really won the battle.
		During this time Gondor was threatened by wild men from the North-east who had come out of the Brown Lands and had crossed the Anduin on rafts, and Orcs who had descended from the mountains.

	Rohan - FAQ Of The Rohirrim
		Translated as 'horse-land', the Kingdom of the Rohirrim, bounded by the Ered Nimrais, the Isen, the Misty Mountains, Fangorn, the Limlight, Anduin, the Mouths of Entwash, and the Mering Stream.
		Once a province of Gondor, Calenardhon, the land was given to the Men of Eothe'od by Cirion of Gondor in TA 2510 in return for their aid in the Battle of the Fields of Celebrant and their swearing to the Oath of Eorl.
		In 2510 Eon Lord of Eothe'od led an army to Gondor to fight in the Battle of the Field of Celebrant, and he and his people then settled in Rohan.

	Where Have All the Dragons Gone?
		That seems so unlike the heroic Rohirrim and their ancestors, the Eotheod who helped Gondor.
		Fram may have been a proud and arrogant man with little love for Dwarves, but I think it would be out of character for him to be greedy and pretentious enough to go dragon-hunting.
		Scatha must have seemed a real threat to the Eotheod.

	[No title]
		Disclaimer: No characters were harmed (and no money was made) in the writing of this spoof; sorry, Tolkien, I couldn't resist.
		A/N: A wee bit of historical background: Eorl is the first King of Rohan, the land given to him and his people (the Eotheod) when they rode to the aid of Gondor, summoned by Cirion, the steward of Gondor at that time.
		At this time, the North Kingdom had already been scattered and Angmar had already swept through that country, destroying Amon Sul (Weathertop), hence the unknown fate of the Palantir held there.

	Minas Tirith Forums: What is the origin of Hobbits?
		Your theory about the dwelling of the hobbits east of Mirkwood may also be supported by some of your other detective work:
		[the Eotheod did not exist when the hobbits passed into Eriador:] they couldn’t have adopted any language from the Éothéod, the ancestors of the Rohirrim
		But, as you mention, the peoples who formed the Eotheod (and had a language related to that of the hobbits) had lived east of Mirkwood originally - perhaps the language influence occured then?
