	Cuiviénen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Its name (cuiviër+nen) means 'water of awakening,' and it is said to have been on the shore of a large gulf in the inland Sea of Helcar in the far east of Middle-earth.
		The Awakening of the Elves took place in very ancient times, during the Years of the Trees, and Cuiviénen is known to have been destroyed (perhaps by natural forces) since then.
		It is unknown how long the Avari remained at Cuiviénen during the First Age, but it is certain that the Sea of Helcar ceased to exist after the War of Wrath, for "to Cuiviénen there is no returning".

		Rhûn is a name used for all lands lying east Rhovanion, around and beyond the inland Sea of Rhûn, from where many attacks on Gondor and its allies came during the Third Age.

		The inland sea in the east of ancient Middle-earth, on the eastern shores of which lay Cuiviénen.
		However, the text of The Silmarillion states that '...that sea stood where aforetime the roots of the mountain of Illuin had been...' (Quenta Silmarillion 3), and that Illuin was raised '...near to the north of Middle-earth' ibid 1), so Tolkien's conception seems to have changed over time.

	Cirdan the Shipwright - www.ezboard.com
		Though the ships found Arvedui, they were lost at sea during a mighty storm, loosing both the king and the two Palantiri that he had escaped with.
		The final two Ringbearers had yet to pass across the sea, but in the sixty-second year of the Fourth Age of the Sun, Samwise Gamgee, faithful companion of Frodo Baggins, arrived in Mithlond, and he and Cirdan sailed away on the last of the ships built by that great shipwright upon those shores.
		For Ulmo had said unto him in a dream, "Abide now that time, for when it comes then will your work be of utmost worth, and it will be remembered in song for many ages after." And Cirdan had sworn to obey, though his kin sailed ahead of him, and he had wished to follow.

	Before the Numenoreans Came — Merp.com Website
		During that time huge parts of Middle-earth -- Beleriand, the far northern lands, the inland sea of Helcar -- were ruined or reshaped.
		Tolkien doesn't explain why or how the sea of Helcar was destroyed, but it may be that the lands were raised up so that the waters flowed north and hence around the northern edge of Middle-earth to help inundate the sinking lands in Beleriand.
		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.

		Cuivienan was a mere, either a lake or a bay on the eastern shore of the inland sea of Helcar at the foot of the Orocarni (Mountains of the East) near the Wild Wood.
		Helcar was created when the mountain of Illuin was overthrown by Melkor, and many waters flowed into the deep place, so that the first of the sounds the elves heard were of water falling over stone.
		Cuivienen was destroyed in the Change of the World when Eru made Arda round.

		But it is said among the Elves that [Cuiviénen] lay far off in the east of Middle-earth, and that it was a bay in the Inland Sea of Helcar; and that sea stood where aforetime the roots of the mountains of Illuin had been before Melkor overthrew it.
		The wild kine that were still to be found near the Sea of Rhûn were said in legend to be descended from the Kine of Araw, the huntsman of the Valar, who alone of the Valar came often to Middle-earth in the Elder days.

		The first "missing" range would be the Misty Mountains, located eastward of the Ered Luin and probably extending north from the sea of Helcar.
		The second "missing" range (unnamed) could be about midway between the Misty Mountains and the Orocarni, the Mountains of the East.
		During that time the Dwarves established a close friendship with Thingol's realm (but they did not venture near the Sea nor visit Cirdan's people in western Beleriand).

		The white walls were overgrown with trailing ivy that slithered from the roof in graceful rills and the windowsills were pouring and boiling with flowers of exquisite brightness and ethereal loveliness.
		The fairies did not linger to ponder what was to be done next: they were in danger as long as they remained in Middle-Earth and they made their minds to seek the Blessed realm and establish a settlement there.

		In short, the War of Wrath must have produced two waves of migration: one coming from the east to the west as new lands rose up and destroyed the Sea of Helcar, one coming from the west to the east as people and evil creatures fled the destruction of Beleriand.
		Caught in the middle would have been the Nandorin Elves, Dwarves, and Edainic Men of Eriador and Wilderland.
		In the three years following the War of Wrath Eonwë travelled throughout Middle-earth, summoning Elves once again to pass over Sea to the West.

		I don't think there were ever any Elves south of Greenwood/Mirkwood to the east of Anduin -- although I'm not really sure about where they lived in the lands east of the Sea of Rhun.
		It is also conceivable he might have regarded some of them to have migrated southwards in those distant east lands.
		However, I think the detruction of the Sea of Helcar (of the Sea of Rhun was all that remained) may have forced the Avari to migrate west.
