A term for the secretive people known variously as Drúedain, Púkel-men, Woses, and many other names besides. Drúath is an earlier form of their name in Sindarin, modified to Drúedain as long ago the First Age, after it was discovered that these people were enemies of the Orcs.
By the Third Age, the Drúath had dwindled to a fraction of their former numbers, surviving in the woodland known as the Drúadan Forest beneath the White Mountains.
