1) Then, in fact, Chrysophylax was a dragon, not a worm. Thanks for the correction. 2) I like Farmer Giles.

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)

What is the Thain's book called?

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.

The Thain's Book is called the Thain's Book. Jes was right about it being a copy of the Red Book. What are you getting at, Saulotus?

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).
