I could only find the name of the witness - Nellas.
And what she was sitting on..? On a rock?

Nellas, Turin's friend, was sitting on a tree when she witnessed the fight, so the answer would be wood.

Perhaps it was Androg? I know that he coveted the bow of Beleg which was the most famous bow of the First Age (I think), but Beleg was an Elf, and his bow was buried with him...
