Eldamar was the land of the Elves in Aman, a coastal region that extended to Alqualonde.
[edit] Etymology
Eldamar means "Elvenhome" in Quenya (from elda = "High-elf" and már = "home").
[edit] Inspiration
The name is a direct translation of the mythological Elfhame (lit. "Elf-home") meaning "Elfland, Faery".
