I vote Tar Ardamin - you may argue that he is not the 16th ruler of Numenor, but the 19th..... there were 3 queens ... so <img src=smile.gif ALT=":)">

What happened to the Palantíri?

[ October 06, 2002: Message edited by: piosenniel ]

all of them or one in particular?

You need not say specifics of where each went, but how they all came to leave Númenor.

They were with Elendil and his sons when they fled from the destruction of Numenor - two With Anarion, two With Isildur and three with Elendil. Afterwards they were placed at strategic and geographic suitable sites like Osgiliath, Minas Anor, Orthanc and Minas Ithil in the Southern Kingdom and like site in the Northern Kingdom.

Excellent!

Have you a question, now?

Which Numenorean King build a tower for astronomical observations in the north of Numenor?

Dagor nu Giliath? I have no books to confirm spelling 'The battle under the Stars'

Tar-Meneldil built the tower on Forrostar.

You are so close that I'll let you have it.
For the record Meneldil was the son of Anarion whom Isildur instructed and made heir and King of Gondor andter Tha Last Alliance. Tar Meneldur was fifth king of Numenor - an it was of course him you were thinking of - please proceed

I thought that it made sense to say Meneldil, because the name translates as "Lover of Heaven". Anyway. What were the names of the three ceremonies that were held on the Meneltarma each year?

Erukyermë - in the first days of Spring

Erulaitalë - in midsummer

Eruhantalë - at the end of autimn

Go right ahead, piosenniel.

What is the line of descent of Nimloth, and its fate?

No answers!

Try this one:

How many roads led to the top of Meneltarma.

Im not sure - Im guessing only one?

On target!

Have you a question?

I do [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] - The axe of Tuor was a mighty heirloom in Numenor. What name has that axe and what does the name mean?

You made me search for this one!

I knew it was named Dramborleg.

But I had to read through the footnotes to 'A Description of Númenor' to find its meaning:

Thudder-Sharp [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Indeed [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] good work !

What was the name of the first ship to sail back to Middle-earth from Númenor?

Entulessë, it was, that first sailed into Mithlond, captained by Vëantur, Tar-elendil was the King at the time.

Anyone else have a question?

Good question though, piosenniel [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

What harbor did Aldarion establish in ME with the purpose of shipping timber to Numenor?

[ October 23, 2002: Message edited by: Telchar ]

I'll let someone else guess this one.

Here's a hint,though:

in Eriador, at the mouth of the Gwathlö

also called, Lond Daer Enedh

that was more than a hint - [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] - go on piosenniel

Come, now! Someone must have heard of Vinyalondë (the answer to the previous question)

Here's one:

Who was the son of Silmarien and Elatan, & why was he so important to the history of Middle Earth?
