The One Wiki to Rule Them All

Eðellos was the wife of Angrod, second son of Finarfin, and grandmother of Finduilas and Gil-galad, the last High King of the Ñoldor in the Second Age.

Biography[]

Eðellos was a Ñoldorin Elf, likely born in Aman. It was in Eldamar that she married Angrod and had one son named Orodreth. Orodreth later escaped to Nargothrond when his father was slain in the Dagor Bragollach.

She probably went into exile and translated her name to Sindarin in Middle-earth according to sense (only the Ñoldor who did not reach it had no Sindarin names). She is not mentioned in any of the tales of Beleriand, and so nothing else is known of her fate.[1]

Etymology[]

Eðellos was the Sindarin translation of Eldalótë, which was Quenya for "Elven-flower". The ð in her name is pronounced as the "th-" in "heather".
