Ages of the Lamps and the Trees - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

If we go with the Annals of Aman in History of Middle-earth X [Morgoth's Ring], we get:

1500: Lamps built
3450: Lamps destroyed
3500: Trees came into being; new reconing: Year 1 under the Light of the Trees
1495: Trees destroyed

All of these dates are in Valinorean years.
1 Valinorean year = 9.582 Sun Years (as in Middle-earth).
