Púkel-men

From Tolkien Gateway

"...It is a long tale..." —Aragorn This article or section needs expansion and/or modification. Please help the wiki by expanding it.

Púkel-men were the ancient carved images, thought to be of Woses or Drúedain, that lined the road to Dunharrow in the White Mountains.

[edit] Etymology

The word púcel in Old English means "little goblin". The element púc "goblin" is related to the name Puck and the modern English word "pug".^[1]
