'''Túrin I''' ([[Third Age]] 2165 – 2278, aged 113 years) was the sixth [[Ruling Steward]] of [[Gondor]], who succeeded his father [[Húrin I]] to the Stewardship. Like his father, Túrin was named for a great hero of the [[First Age]], and this seems to have become a trend in the [[House of the Stewards]] after his time. For five generations after Túrin, starting with his son Hador, his descendants were named for [[Elves]] or [[Men]] of the First Age.

Túrin I (Third Age 2165[1]2278,[2] aged 113 years) was the sixth Ruling Steward of Gondor.

History

Túrin was named after the great hero of the First Age. Since the House of Húrin was a family of ancient Elf-friends they spoke Sindarin (after the fashion of Gondor) and often drew their names from legends of Elves or Men of the First Age.[1]

Túrin's stewardship occurred during the period of the Watchful Peace (T.A. 2063-2460).[3]

Túrin ruled as Steward for thirty-four years. Very unusually for a noble of Gondor, he married twice and had several daughters. Only his last child, born in his old age, was a son,[1] Hador by whom he was succeeded.[2]
