Bruce MacCulloch

There were two Hyarmendacils of Gondor. The first was called Ciryaher. He ruled for 134 years (1015-1149).
Hyarmendacil II (Vinyarion) ruled from 1540 to 1621 (84 years).

Oops, I meant the first was NAMED Ciryaher.

Which king rebuilt Minas Anor?
Androndo the Thoughtfull

If you mean when it changed name to Minas Tirith it was Elendil & Sons
Bruce MacCulloch

No - later than that. After it was rebuilt, the kings dwelt there in the summer rather than in Osgiliath.

Thorongil... (Also known as Aragorn Elessar)
Legolas

Maybe I wasn't specific enough.

Who was the king who defeated the Corsairs and reclaimed Umbar?

It was before Aragorn. Aragorn's defeat(s) of the Corsairs were prior to his crowning.

Was it Ciryaher? The one that was called Hyarmendacil the First?
Legolas
02-07-2002, 04:04 PM
Nope.

How many Kings of Gondor shared names with Kings of Arnor?
Shards of Narsil

According to my research, there were two.

There was Eldacar son of Valacar in Gondor and Eldacar son of Valandil in Arnor.
Also, there was Tarondor son of Minastan in Gondor and Tarondor son of Tarcil in Arnor.
