Hmm

I put down Bilbo and Isildur in a previous post...but I can't think of others. Gandalf never actually held it; he read the inscription when it was in Frodo's hand; and Galadriel would not take it when offered. Ai! <img src=ohwell.gif ALT=":/">

The Ring

I considered Gandalf as one of the people who had held the Ring, since he throw it to the fire when he was with Frodo, but there is still one more.
The one left is not mentioned in LOTR, but his existance it's obvious.

Re. The Ring

I think I found what you were looking for. Maybe you're meaning that time, when Frodo rests at Rivendel after the battle against the Nazgûl at Bruinen's side and somebody changes the chain the Ring was held in. I think that unknown person could be Elrond or maybe Gandalf but the discussion is totally unnecessary as he is not mentioned at all (at least as far as I know).

Re: Re. The Ring

Since this one has lain fallow for I while, I thought I might re-awaken it. Evinyatar, if you drop by, just interrupt with a new question and I'll withdraw mine.

A certain member of Rohan's royal family slew Scatha and in response to a demand by some dwarves for return of their horde sent this with his response. Who was the sender and what did he send?

Fram sent the teeth of Scatha made into a necklace back to the dwarves.

Re: Items in ME

I had the ring of Barahir in mind, but I was thinking that Elrond gave it to him as King Elessar, along with the scepter and crown. Elessar was the name I used in my Q, so it was technically not correct, as the ring was given to Estel. (Several ppl have stated in posts that the rule of this room is that you have to state the right name for the time period that the question refers to.) So you got the Q right even though I screwed it up.
