'Ware! Ware!' cried Damrod to his companion. 'May the Valar turn him aside! Műmak! Műmak!'

Isn't this the first time that we have heard about the Valar from Mankind? I could be wrong, but it struck me as unexpected, especially given the fact that they were cut off from the elves. And it is yet another affirmation of this peoples' heritage. Despite it's decline, the Gondorians appear to have have passed down more than architecture, language and an excellent library.
