Did the Necromancer practice necromancy?

[Hilde Bracegirdle]

c. 1100 - The wise (the Istari and the chief Eldar) discover that an evil power has made a stronghold at Dol Guldur. It is thought to be one of the Nazgul.

- The Tale of Years (Third Age)

Perhaps this sheds some light on why the power in Dol Guldur is called the Necromancer. One can surely see why the locals would feel that sort of stuff might be happening. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
