Third Age 2459
From Tolkien Gateway
- Birth of Léod, later a Lord of the Éothéod.
Calculation of the Date
Léod was 42 years old when he died and his son Eorl was but 16.[1] Eorl was born in T.A. 2485[2] so when he was 16 it was the year 2501. Forty-two years before was 2459, the year of Léod's birth.
