How do we know that these nameless things create tunnels? This is, I think, an unsupported assumption. They may simply use the caves and cracks below the earth, mightn't they?

Perhaps this possibility should be included? (as a newcomer, I didn't want to start changing content)

Perhaps the assumption is based on the quote that says the nameless things "gnaw" on the earth? But I could also imagine that these creatures use underground caves and cracks, as you say, and the delvings by Morgoth of the Underdeeps. --Morgan 19:26, 11 December 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Proposed move

Tolkien never actually capitalized the term "Nameless Things" in any texts. I believe that the page should be moved to "Nameless things" with the second word uncapitalized.Dour1234 (talk) 11:34, 7 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
