Of Gondorians and Rohirrim... - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Sorry for the delay. I was away for the weekend, and then couln't come up with much worth putting in. Even now, this one should be pretty easy.

The Argonath marked the northern border of Gondor (at the time of their construction). Each statue had the left hand held palm outward in a "stop, don't go any further" motion.

Who did each statue represent, and what did the right hand of each statue hold?

I believe they represented Isildur and Anarion andthey both held axes in their hands.

Shards of Narsil · 12-12-2007, 12:25 PM

Yup. That was easy.

The Might · 12-12-2007, 12:51 PM

Where was the middle of Gondor (as the Gondorians approximatively decided)?

Legate of Amon Lanc · 12-12-2007, 01:22 PM

I think it was Amon Anwar?

The Might · 12-12-2007, 04:05 PM

Yes, indeed Halfirien it is.

The beginning of the attacks of the Easterlings in early 3rd age caused the Gondorians to do one particular thing that did not have anything to do with military or strategy. What was it?
