Lanthir Lamath

Lanthir Lamath (Sindarin for 'Waterfall of Echoing Voices') was sparklingly beautiful waterfall in the Ossiriand at the foot of the southern range of the Ered Luin.

It was part of a stream of the river Adurant. It was well known for being near the house of Dior Eluchíl, son of Beren and Lúthien when he lived there before becoming the King of Doriath. Its light glittering gentle spray shimmered in the light as it fell. This inspired the name of his daughter Elwing whose name means "Star-spray".

It was probably ruined after the destruction of Beleriand after the War of Wrath.
