Prisca Bolger, née Baggins, was a Hobbit of the Shire.
History[edit | edit source]
Prisca was the second child and daughter of Polo Baggins.[1] She married Wilibald Bolger, and had several children: Wilimar, Heribald and Nora. Her husband passed away before S.R. 1401, but she attended Bilbo's Farewell Party with her children.[2]
Etymology[edit | edit source]
Prisca is a Latin/Italian word meaning "former, old" from which derives the name Priscilla.[3]
Other versions of the legendarium[edit | edit source]
The 50th Anniversary edition of The Lord of the Rings includes Prisca as a guest at the Farewell Party.[4] In older editions of Appendix C, Prisca is not marked as an attendee. Robert Foster in his The Complete Guide to Middle-earth thus states that Prisca died before T.A. 3001.[5]
