Re: The Rings Of Power

For more on Dwarves [names of the seven hgouses and some of the residences - I don't think we hear of all 7] see the long and fascinating Essay 'On Dwarves and Men' in Peoples of M-E [HoME 12] It is more than i haver time to elaborate on now , but if oyu do not have access, I am sure someone [ or myself at alater time] can post soem of it.
The origin of 2 of the wring wratiths [3?] is stated somewhere i just read [UT?] [Of the Rings of Power...? ] as being Black numenorean from well before the Fall of Numenor.

there are in the archives a few interesting threads on the 3 rings which might be interesting to you . Welcome to the Downs Findorfin-
