Sirion's Haven: '(Siriombar), the settlement of Tuor and the
remnants of Doriath at Eges-sirion; also called Sirion.' The name
Siriombar only occurs here; cf. Brithornbar.
Mouths of Sirion: '(Eges-sirion), the various branches of Sirion at
its delta, also the region of the delta.' Above the second s of Eges-sirion
(a name not found elsewhere) is written an h, showing the change of
original s to h in medial position.
Sirion's Well: '(Eithil or Eithil Sirion), the sources of Sirion, and the
fortress of Fingolfin and Fingon near the spring.'
Tol Thu is another name for Tol-na-Gaurhoth.
Tulkas 'The youngest and strongest of the nine Valar.' The reference is
to Q, IV. 79, but it is not said there that Tulkas was the youngest of the
Valar.

III THE SECOND 'SILMARILLION' MAP

The second map of Middle-earth west of the Blue Mountains in the Elder
Days was also the last. My father never made another; and over many
years this one became covered all over with alterations and additions of
names and features, not a few of them so hastily or faintly pencilled as to
be more or less obscure. This was the basis for my map in the published
'Silmarillion'.
The original element in the map can however be readily perceived
from the fine and careful pen (all subsequent change was roughly done);
and I give here on four successive pages a reproduction of the map as it
was originally drawn and lettered. I have taken pains to make this as
close a copy of the original as I could, though I do not guarantee the exact
correspondence of every tree.
It is clear that this second map, developed from that given in Vol. IV,
belonged in its original form with the earlier work of the 1930S: it was in
fact closely associated with the List of Names - which in two cases (Eglor
and Eredlumin, although Eredlumin is not marked on the map) gives
'Map' as the source-reference - as is shown by certain name-forms
common to both, e.g. Dor-deloth, Dor-lumin, Eithil Sirion, and by the
occurrence in both of Cape Balar (see the entry Beleriand in the List of
Names). Moreover the date in 'Realm of Nargothrond Beyond the river
(until 195)' on the map associates it with the original Annals of Beleriand,
where the fall of the redoubt took place in that year (IV. 305), as does the
river-name Rathlorion (later Rathloriel).
The map is on four sheets, originally pasted together but now
separate, in which the map-squares do not entirely coincide with the
sheets. In my reproductions I have followed the squares rather than the

original sheets. I have numbered the squares horizontally right across the
map from 1 to 15, and lettered them vertically from A to M, so that each
square has a different combination of letter and figure for subsequent
reference. I hope later to give an account of all changes made to the map
afterwards, using these redrawings as a basis. The scale is 50 miles to
3'2 cm. (the length of the sides of the squares); see p. 272.
