Aravir (T.A. 2156[1] - 2319,[2] died aged 163) was the fourth Chieftain of the Dúnedain, following his father, Aranuir, upon his death in 2247.

History[edit | edit source]

Aravir's rule was uneventful, except for the usual skirmishes with orcs. Aravir died in 2319, after having been Chieftain for seventy-two years, and was followed by his son Aragorn I.[2]

Etymology[edit | edit source]

Aravir is a Sindarin name. Its meaning is not glossed, but the Association Tolkiendil suggests it means "Royal Jewel".[3] It is probably a compound of the prefix ar(a)- ("noble", "royal", "high") and the lenited form vir of mîr ("jewel", "treasure", precious thing).[4][3]
