Are you, Aldburg, the dwelling of Éomer in the Folde?

Posted: **Thu Nov 27, 2025 12:16 am**

Are you Celebannon, the trading hub of the Thranduil's people in contact with Dale, Erebor and Esgaroth? It's on the banks of the Taurduin.

I did reread one of the questions and can say that this is an inhabited area between Eryn Lasgalen and the Celduin.

Posted: **Fri Nov 28, 2025 7:47 pm**

Dorwinion perhaps?

Otherwise there are other unofficial names such as Aur Asgalabar, Uvanwaith and Dor-rhunen. I can't find any other names than Dale, Dorwinion, Esgaroth or Erebor on Tolkien's official maps. The land south and southeast of the Eryn Lasgalen are the thin populated lands of the former Wainriders, and their descendents Aragorn battles with until he defeats them, and bring the land under his jurisdiction.

It is worth noting that I am looking for the subregion, where it is noted that a group settled.

Posted: **Fri Nov 28, 2025 10:56 pm**

Dorwinion is the subregion of Rhûn, also Rómen in Quenya. There is the Eastbight, but I have mentioned that already. I don't believe there is further a known subregion in Dorwinion, it is not named in the article on Tolkien Gateway. If there was it would have been mentioned and there would be reference of it to where it's found in the books.

Somebody else has to try it then. Maybe that person is more succesful?

Posted: **Sat Nov 29, 2025 7:00 pm**

Jumping in very quickly to say that I've spent a bunch of time which I SHOULD have spent studying trying to solve this instead, and I can only think that @Aikári Salmarinian is right and that it is the East Bight? Or the settlements therein? I just want to confirm that that's definitely not the answer before I go absolutely crazy trying to figure this one out, since it didn't make it onto the list of clues.

Posted: **Sun Nov 30, 2025 6:18 pm**

Not sure about the subregion, are you Rhovanion?

Posted: **Sun Nov 30, 2025 11:02 pm**

The answer is East Bight, my apologies if I missed it earlier.

Posted: **Tue Dec 02, 2025 10:03 pm**

Arothir: It's okay, no apologies needed. I was not sure if it was the answer, but thanks. Up for a new round.
