Summary[edit | edit source]

Reconstructed latitude of Numenor, based on the vines growing on the isle in Hyarnustar and the adequate climatological conditions for viticulture. The isle is correctly scaled and slightly re-oriented according to the compass rose on CJRT's map in Unfinished Tales. Longitude is not intended to be represented accurately. Sphericity of the world and the type of map projection are not taken into account.
