Helmingas
 
Where do the Helmingas live? I remember hearing it somewhere, but I forgot where.

I'm going to give this a try. The Helmingas were, I believe, from Rohan. The actual region may be Westfold, I say that because the people waiting at Helm's Deep with Gamling were from Westfold.

Yes, or no?

Joy 03-30-2002 11:28 PM

I think you are right alaklondewen. I remember reading that the people of Rohan were called Eorlingas, the people of Eorl. So I guess that the people of Helm's Deep were called Helmingas.

Dior 04-01-2002 07:59 PM

I thought they were Helmlings

Nefwathiel Teleri 04-03-2002 07:15 PM

Joys right. It would be kinda funny if one of them walked up to someone else and said
"Hi, im a helming, what are you?"

Dior 04-06-2002 09:10 PM

Do you mean Eothed, because Riddermank is what the Rohirrim called Rohan.

Dior 04-06-2002 09:11 PM

EORED not Eothed. Terrible.

Ok, send me a private message w/ your adress in it.

Orodhromeus 04-07-2002 07:04 AM

Hem... sorry to interrupt, but I have my two words on this [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

As Joy pointed out, the "-ingas" ending in rohirrim seems to indicate "the people of", so Helmingas must be the people of Helm (and not Helmlingas). I wouldn't know the singular, though. Remember, Helm was a person. Helm's Deep were named after him. So Helmingas would be the followers of Helm.
And it's éored, not eored (I know, this one was too perfectionist...)

Dior 04-08-2002 07:28 PM

Ok, sorry. All I said was that I THOUGHT it was HELMLINGS or whatever. No-one said yes or no, so I assumed I was right. Thanks for clarifying.

Nefwathiel Teleri 04-10-2002 07:58 PM
