==History==
In {{FA|455}}, Barahir fought in the [[Dagor Bragollach]] ("Battle of Sudden Flame") and saved [[Finrod|Finrod Felagund]] when he was cut off with a small company in the [[Fen of Serech]]. For this, Felagund gave him the '''[[Ring of Barahir]]''', which was then handed down the family line.<ref name="Ruin">{{S|Fingolfin}}</ref> (Thousands of years later this ring was an heirloom of the [[House of Isildur]]<ref>{{App|Eriador}}</ref> and ultimately was given to [[Aragorn]] by [[Elrond]].<ref>{{App|Tale}}</ref>)
Barahir was the fifth and youngest child of [[Bregor]]. He had three elder sisters: [[Bregil]], [[Hirwen]], and [[Gilwen]], and an elder brother [[Bregolas]]. Barahir married [[Emeldir|Emeldir ''the Man-Hearted'']], who was also of the [[House of Bëor]] through the line of [[Belen]] (youngest son of [[Bëor]]). They had two children, the renowned [[Beren]] the ''One-handed'' and a daughter named [[Hiril (daughter of Barahir)|Hiril]]<ref name="WJwest">{{WJ|14}}, ''(i) The House of Bëor'', p. 231</ref><ref>{{WJ|14}}, ''The new genealogies of the Edain'', ''(i) The House of Bëor'', p. 232</ref>
 
In {{FA|455}}, Barahir fought in the [[Dagor Bragollach]] at the [[Pass of Sirion]]. Near the [[Fen of Serech]], he hastened to [[Finrod|Finrod Felagund]]'s rescue with a small retinue of his bravest men. They formed a wall of spears around the Elven King, and cut their way out of the battle at great loss. Finrod was saved, and swore an oath in gratitude, promising help to Barahir and his kin should they need it. To reinforce this oath, he gave Barahir [[Ring of Barahir|his ring]], which would become an heirloom in his house.<ref name="Ruin">{{S|Fingolfin}}</ref>
 
After [[Morgoth]] conquered the lands, Barahir contested his dominion. Gradually all of the people of that region fled until Barahir had but twelve companions left: his son Beren, his nephews [[Baragund]] and [[Belegund]], and nine close and loyal kinsmen, [[Radhruin]], [[Dairuin]], [[Dagnir]], [[Ragnor]], [[Gildor (outlaw)|Gildor]], [[Gorlim]], [[Arthad]], [[Urthel]], and [[Hathaldir]].

After [[Morgoth]] conquered [[Dorthonion]] Barahir contested his dominion. Gradually all of the people of that region fled until Barahir had but twelve companions left in the highlands; by name there were Beren (his son), [[Baragund]] and [[Belegund]] (his nephews), and [[Radhruin]], [[Dairuin]], [[Dagnir]], [[Ragnor]], [[Gildor of Dorthonion|Gildor]], [[Gorlim]],  [[Arthad]], [[Urthel]], and [[Hathaldir]]. As Dorthonion fell under dark enchantment and was called [[Taur-nu-Fuin]] the desperate band retreated to the rocky moors above the forest. <ref name="Ruin"/>
In {{FA|460}} they were betrayed to [[Sauron]] by [[Gorlim]], who was tricked by Sauron into giving up their location. Barahir and the others were [[Massacre of Tarn Aeluin|slaughtered]] near [[Tarn Aeluin]]. Barahir's son Beren alone escaped, as he was away on an errand when the outlaws' hideout was discovered. Returning to the camp Beren buried his father and pursued the Orcs who slew him. The captain of the Orcs had Barahir's hand with the [[Ring of Barahir|ring of Felagund]] on it when Beren found them; Beren killed the captain and retrieved the hand.<ref>{{S|Beren}}</ref>

"Now Morgoth's power overshadowed the Northlands; but Barahir would not flee from Dorthonion, and remained contesting the land foot by foot with his enemies."
Quenta Silmarillion, "Of the Ruin of Beleriand and the Fall of Fingolfin"

Barahir (F.A. 400460) was a Man of Middle-earth, heir to the House of Bëor in the First Age and most famous as the father of Beren Erchamion.

History[edit | edit source]

Barahir was the fifth and youngest child of Bregor. He had three elder sisters: Bregil, Hirwen, and Gilwen, and an elder brother Bregolas. Barahir married Emeldir the Man-Hearted, who was also of the House of Bëor through the line of Belen (youngest son of Bëor). They had two children, the renowned Beren the One-handed and a daughter named Hiril[1][2]

In F.A. 455, Barahir fought in the Dagor Bragollach at the Pass of Sirion. Near the Fen of Serech, he hastened to Finrod Felagund's rescue with a small retinue of his bravest men. They formed a wall of spears around the Elven King, and cut their way out of the battle at great loss. Finrod was saved, and swore an oath in gratitude, promising help to Barahir and his kin should they need it. To reinforce this oath, he gave Barahir his ring, which would become an heirloom in his house.[3]

After Morgoth conquered the lands, Barahir contested his dominion. Gradually all of the people of that region fled until Barahir had but twelve companions left: his son Beren, his nephews Baragund and Belegund, and nine close and loyal kinsmen, Radhruin, Dairuin, Dagnir, Ragnor, Gildor, Gorlim, Arthad, Urthel, and Hathaldir. As Dorthonion fell under dark enchantment and was called Taur-nu-Fuin the desperate band retreated to the rocky moors above the forest.[3]

In F.A. 460 they were betrayed to Sauron by Gorlim, who was tricked by Sauron into giving up their location. Barahir and the others were slaughtered near Tarn Aeluin. Barahir's son Beren alone escaped, as he was away on an errand when the outlaws' hideout was discovered. Returning to the camp Beren buried his father and pursued the Orcs who slew him. The captain of the Orcs had Barahir's hand with the ring of Felagund on it when Beren found them; Beren killed the captain and retrieved the hand.[4]

Etymology[edit | edit source]

Barahir is a Sindarin word and consists of bara ("fiery; eager") + hîr ("master, lord").[5]

Other versions of the legendarium[edit | edit source]

In such early manuscripts as The Tale of Tinúviel and The Lay of Leithian, the father of Beren was a Gnome named Egnor, who was called Rog the Fleet by the Orcs of Melko.[6][7][8]

In the Grey Annals (written in the 1930s[9]) Barahir was born in F.A. 402, two years after his brother Bregolas, and they were both the sons of Bëor the Old.[10] After The Lord of the Rings was written J.R.R. Tolkien overhauled the genealogy of the House of Bëor.[11] Four generations were inserted after Bëor with Bregor made the father of Bregolas and Barahir (whose birth was now set in F.A. 400).[1]
