What did the Lady Eowyn give Merry after the Funeral of King Theoden, where did that thing come from, what was engraved upon it and how many times did Merry use it?

Re: A Question about Merry
Oooo ... good one....
She gave him a horn from the horde of Scatha the Worm....
it had (what else) horses carved on it ... and I'd say he blew it at least a couple times (he did the Horncall of Buckland when they were in Bywater)... but I couldn't say the exact number of times he used it.

Re: A Question about Merry
Very good!
I Think he used it Two times ... the first when the hobbits started to "wake up" the shire and the other time he said to a chieftain of the ruffians "keep your breath, i got a better one" or sth like that
Your turn!

Re: A Question about Merry
Those are both correct. But the one I was looking for was Holdwine. My question wasn't worded well.
You ask one now, Balin.

Merry
Since no one seems to answer this one ill give away the answer:
merry saw bilbo disappearing when Lobelia and Otho approached him ...when they were gone, bilbo suddenly returned, and that made merry suspicious.

Re: Barrows
The Barrows where the graves of the ancient kings of the north and the wights where evil spirits(?) that had risen from the graves and now haunted them.

Re: Barrows
The wights were actually sent to the barrows by the Witch King of Angmar and were not the ghosts of the original people buried there.
But close enough!

Re: Next one
Like Bilbo on the beginning of his journey There and Back Again, Frodo was in his 50th year. In fact, he turned 50 the day before he left Bag End.

Re: Burrahobbit ... your turn!!!
Am I right assuming that you came across this while analyzing Appendix F for the encyclopedia <img src=smile.gif ALT=":)"> ?
"Hobbit" was at first the name given to the Harfoots by the Fallohides and Stoors, deriving from holbytla, hole-builder - they loved holes and smials most of all.

Re: Strider

And Fallohides and Stoors was the answer I was looking for.

Re: The hobbit question
Fram, slayer of Scatha (one of only two dragons I can name), sent the teeth to be made by dwarves into a necklace. His request was cast in insulting terms and the dwarves slayed Fram to redeem their honor.

Tar-meneldur
What was his birthname?
I didn't find it in the appendices,but it has been a
while since I read the silmarillion,so it might be found there.The only Numenoreans on Numenor that changed names where Tar-minyatur and Tar-palantir(I think)

Re: Tar-meneldur
Hmmm...I'm thinking maybe some sort of color...ummm...yeah! That's it! Red!
The Red Book of Westmarch (actually, Thain's Book was the first copy of the original Red Book) and it was also called The Red Book of Periannath, in Gondor.

Re: Tar-meneldur
Haven't looked yet, but I will.
But I've gotta know what the answer to that last one was!! From a fellow Tolkien fan to another...c'mon...what is it?

Re: Tar-meneldur
Could you also tell us the answer to the last question in the now closed Telchar thread, Saulotus? I was really puzzled by that one.

Re: Thain's book
Incorrect.
But here's a new question:
What other name may Doriath be known by?
Answer found in HISTORY.

Re: Thain's book
Before Melian cast the Girdle of Protection around it, the region after known as Doriath was known to the Sindar as Eglador.

Re: Thain's book
I'll have to accept this answer as valid due to bad phrasing of the question.
The answer I was looking for was: Garthurian, as both this and Doriath have the meaning of Hidden Realm.
Ask away.

Re: Thain's book
Saulotus, not meaning to diss you or anything, but I rather think that you ask too many questions on History. You see most people have not read many if any of those books.

Re: Thain's book
Gwaihir... the issue of HoME and UT has already been addressed. That's why Saulotus graciously ended these questions (though I sure wish he would have moved them to the thread I made for them instead <img src=ohwell.gif ALT=":/"> ... I didn't want them to go away. I just wanted them to be in their own place).
