Tar-Anárion

(See also Anárion son of Elendil)

Tar-Anárion (Second Age 1003 – 1404, aged 401 years) was the eighth ruler of Númenor, succeeding his mother, Tar-Ancalimë (being the first ruling Queen). He reigned 114 years, from 1280 to 1394. His name means "Child of the Sun". His father was Hallacar.

Little is said about Tar-Anárion's rule. His two eldest children were female, but both declined the throne for uncertain reasons, and they disliked and feared Ancalimë, who would refuse to let them marry. Therefore he was succeeded by his son, Tar-Súrion.

Preceded by: Tar-Ancalimë

8th King of Númenor II 1280 – 1394
