That isn't older than Telperion I believe... so it can only be wrong.

Look further back!

The mearas, descending from the horses of Aman?

Ok, that's a good thought, but still not old enough.

Think before Aman, before they went to live over the sea.

It's hard to look to a time without the two trees.

The dwarves? Any chance they were created before Telperion? I don't remember what the book says...

The Might · 01-21-2009, 10:47 PM

Wait... weren't the Dwarves made after they moved to Aman?

Please correct me if I am wrong there.

Beregond · 01-21-2009, 10:54 PM

Oh! Before they went to Aman! I missed that.

This is hard! I can't think of anyone who came in the period between Aman and the song of the Maiar. And I don't think you can mean the Maiar, because they didn't "descend" from anyone.

Unless you mean....erm...someone like the Valaraukar?

Just Elves?

Edit:
Before the two trees were made, before they came to live on Aman.
only thing that comes to mind are the vanyar, possibly.
What other creatures existed at the years of the Lamps?

PS. Beregond:

The Valaraukar were maiar themselves..
