White-Hand Avalonnė

There is some discussion relevant to this issue on this thread:

And as for Aman beeing something like Avalon: I think you are right, Aethelwine, because the westernmost haven on Tol Erėssea is actually called "Avalonnė" !
And Frodo's departure has alway reminded me a bit of the departure of the injured king Arthur in a boat (with Morgan le Fay and 2 other women), supposedly to be healed in Avalon...
