Re: The Bridge of Khazad-dum

Must have been splenid crops of veggies growing in those upper regions where the sunlight hit because crops don't grow by torchlight. To suggest that the Dwarves of Moria subsisted only on the output of shaft-light-grown crops is getting silly.

Are you saying the Bridge was a Third-age innovation and not contemporary with the road leading away eastward? If so, what was their great defense before the bridge? And if not, then the bridge and the Road existed and were used concurrently and we are back to my initial arguement: if a road was neccesary for traffic leading eastward, then the bridge would only serve as bottleneck.
