Second Age 521
From Tolkien Gateway
- Birth of Silmariën, eldest child and daughter of Tar-Elendil and ancestor of the Lords of Andúnië.[1][2][3][note 1]
Notes
- ↑ Silmariën's birth-year was originally stated as 548 in "The Tale of Years"; Christopher Tolkien stated "I think it very likely that this should have been revised but escaped noticed." This error has since been corrected to 521 in the 50th Anniversary Edition of the The Lord of the Rings.
