Anomalies

[Gwaihir the Windlord]

I think she was reffering to the 'Woses' the 'Southernly Branch' of the Druedain, who were held to be the first Men to cross the Anduin.

Indeed, I had assumed that the Woses were the descendants (as UT suggests) of the Druedain of Numenor. The time frame was long enough.

Not that it's really that different, as the Druedain/Woses were not an 'anomaly'; simply a little-known, ill-documented race of rather mysterious and odd Men.

(Ungoliant is undoubtedly an interesting subject. If anyone's interested, there's an excellent discussion about her and her anomalous properties in sections of this thread.)
