Beleg (T.A. 811[1] - T.A. 1029,[2] died aged 218) was the second king of Arthedain.
[edit] History
Beleg inherited the throne from his father, the founder of the kingdom, Amlaith of Fornost, in T.A. 946.
Beleg ruled Arthedain for eighty-three years, and was succeeded by his son Mallor upon his death in 1029.[2]
[edit] Etymology
His name means "great' or "large",[3] which may be a reference to his stature (although he may simply be named after the famous Elf of the First Age who shared this name, Beleg Strongbow[4]).
