Earlier in Appendix A The Stewards it exlpains how he came to Gondor from Rohan where he had served king Thengel... "Thorongil men called him in Gondor, the Eagle of the Star." Though Aragorn might well have served Thengel under the same alias, the text does not specify that he did. mailto:barrow-wight@kitgraphics.comThe Barrow-Wight</a> http://www.barrowdowns.comThe Barrow-Downs</a></p> |

<font face="Verdana"><table><TR><TD><FONT SIZE="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Spirit
Posts: 0</TD><TD></TD></TR></TABLE> dart-arrow I think the a dart was what the nazgul used and an arrow was what the rest of the people used. I was reading in the RotK and Aragorn said that it wasn't actually a dart that got Faramir becuase he would already be dead but someone else said they thought it came from the sky so I'm not sure what it was. If I'm confusing you please feel free to not read it. </p> |

I'm sure that everyone knows what an arrow looks like and how it's used, so I won't go into that... A dart however is similar to a javelin - not as long, with a large heavyish head (barbed) and flight like those of a hunting arrow (except quite larger, and is flung fronm the hand with a leather thong which is twisted around the shaft,(upon itself)behind the hand. This gives a greater coverage distance. Used as early as the Iron age if not earlier... Although maybe it was a blowpipe dart...? Hmmmm Hope this helps though... </p> |

Posts: 0</TD><TD></TD></TR></TABLE> Re: dart-arrow I've always thought the dart may have been a blowpipe. Though swords, axes, bow and arrows seemd to bee the most common type of weapons, there were some pretty exotic bad-guys on the Pellnor that day. A blowpipe might very well have hung at the belt of many Southerner that day... or maybe even the Nazgul. mailto:barrow-wight@kitgraphics.comThe Barrow-Wight</a> http://www.barrowdowns.comThe Barrow-Downs</a></p> |

Cirdan sent ships around to save him, but the ship he was on floundered in the ice and he and the palantiri of Amon Sul and Annuminas were lost.
