: Did Eorl lead all of the Rohirrim to Calenardhon or did a remnant of his people stay in the Éothéod (near the sources of the Anduin)?: Also Michael in the thread ‘Northmen - a cultural/racial duality?’ (Aug. 14, 1998 at 06:08:34) made the following statement: : “Actually, the Rohirrim had intermarried with another, darker people in the distant north, and not just the Dunlendings. Tolkien doesn’t tell us anything about that other people.” : Anyone (Michael?) know where Tolkien refers to this “darker people in the distant north”? : Cheers : Berembrôg Michael and I have had the discussion in an "Extent of Dale" thread, it is in the archives I suppose. If you want what I gleaned from our debate, mail me off line, you already have my adress (I may even have sent it, did I send the "Armed Forces of Middle-Earth" Document?? It is in that somewhere. NT
