Who was buried by the river Poros after a battle there. What is the name of the mound?

Wasn't it Folcred and Fastred? They were buried in a single mound, according to the fashion of the Rohirrim; and the mound long kept people enemies from crossing the river. But... I... can't...remember... the name!!!

Three cheers for Google... is it the Haudh in Gwanur?

Name both ways in which Aragorn et al had a claim by blood to the throne of Gondor.

Aragorn was a direct descendant of Isildur, Erendil's son through Arathorn, Aragorn's father. He was also a direct descendant of Arvedui, the last King, through his mother, Gilraen. This would give Aragorn two direct bloodlines to the thrown of Gondor.

Not quite, but you are halfway there. This is where the "et al" comes in!
