He was killed in the Battle of Dagorlad at the end of that Age. * Amlach Son of Imlach son of Marach; a leader of dissension among the Men of Estolad who, repenting, took service with Maedhros. * Amlaith of Fornost|Amlaith Eldest son of Eфrendur and direct descendant of Isildur; he was the first King of Arthedain. Amlaith's younger brothers (whose names were frustratingly never recorded) were the founders of the kingdoms of Cardolan and Rhudaur. * Amon Amarth 'Mount Doom', the name given to Orodruin when its fires awoke again after Sauron's return from N·menor. ----- A rarely used name for Orodruin, the flaming mountain in northern Mordor where Sauron forged the One Ring. * Amon Anwar|Anwar|Hill of Awe 'Hill of Awe'; Sindarin name of Halifirien, seventh of the beacons of Gondor in Ered Nimrais; also simply Anwar. See Eilenaer, Halifirien, Wood of Anwar. ----- The original Sindarin name for the hill known to the Rohirrim as the Halifirien.
