Hmmm, could Sauron take a physical form after the Last Alliance? From what i've read it sounded like he was present in spirit during LOTR but had no bodily manifestation. Then of course if you think that why did he have to have the ring brought to him? Why couldn't he just go to the rings if he was only a spirit? If ther ring had fallen into the abyss during the downfall of Numenor Sauron would still exist but remain relativley weak compared to him with the ring. It is said that the only reason Sauron remained after his Death at the Last Aliiance is due to the ring remaining. So maybe that was why he could come back to Mordor after the fall of Numenor?
