Ethir Anduin

2008-10-29T07:27:39Z

72.225.168.28:

The '''Ethir Anduin''' is the delta of the river [[Anduin]], south of [[Pelargir]]. It is populated mostly by [[Fish|fishermen]], and not very well defended. They sent some 100 fishermen spared from the boats for the defense of [[Minas Tirith]].

==Etymology==
The Ethir Anduin is also known as the "Mouths of Anduin". ''[[Ethir]]'' is a [[Sindarin]] word meaning "Mouth" or, literally, "Out-flow". ''[[Anduin]]'' simply means "Long river".

==Portrayal in adaptations==
In [[Rankin/Bass' The Return of the King]], [[Gandalf]] mentions the Ethir (wrongly pronounced Ee-thur) as he explains the coming of the [[Aragorn II|Black ships]] to the audience.

Anfalas

72.225.168.28:

The Anfalas, or ''Long Shore'', also known as '''''Langstrand''''' in [[Westron]] (the [[Common Tongue]]), lies between the rivers [[Lefnui]] and [[Morthond]], south of the Green Hills of ''Pinneth Gelin''. It was not densely populated, as it is far from central [[Gondor]] and there were no cities.

During the [[War of the Ring]], the people of the Anfalas were harassed at the coasts by the [[Corsairs of Umbar]]. Lord [[Golasgil]] led a long line of scantily equipped hunters and fishermen, and also his own household, to the [[Battle of the Pelennor Fields]].
