another great topic AND glad to make the first reply, maedhros! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
hmmm, i don't know about you guys, but numenore was a bit hazy for me, hazy enough to preclude any decent pretense of knowledge as far as its culture is concerned [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] . some aspects of the life of the nobility summarily gleaned from UT brings to mind aragorn's upbringing in the household of elrond, but that was it! of course, numenore's derivative culture must have been crucial to the establishment and sustenance of the numenorean kingdoms in ME and the perpetration of the line of elros, but like you i think i'll wait for enlightenment from
other sources [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
