Hareth was the elder daughter of Halmir, chieftain of the Haladin, and sister of Haldir, Hundar,[2] and Hiril.[3]

History[edit | edit source]

In F.A. 436[4] there was a great feast of the Edain, when she and her brother married with two children of Hador of the House of Marach; whereas Hareth married Galdor, Lord of Dor-lómin, her brother married Galdor's sister, Glóredhel.[5]

Hareth bore him two sons, Húrin and Huor.[2]

Disasters such as the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, the death of childless Brandir the Lame by Hareth's grandson Túrin,[6] and the coming of her son Húrin to Brethil, causing the ruin of Obel Halad,[7] resulted to the dwindling and decline of Hareth's people.[8] Fortunately, her union with the House of Hador, kept the lineage of her House alive through her grandson, Tuor.

Etymology[edit | edit source]

Hareth also appears in Tûr Haretha, the "Ladybarrow", so the name probably means "Lady" in the Haladin tongue.[9]

Robert Foster also suggests that Hareth means "Lady",[4] however the entry erroneously labels the name as Quenya.
