The Elder Days were the very first Ages of Middle-earth.
During the Second and Third Ages, this term referred to the First Age and before, but in the Fourth Age the term began to be applied to all three preceding ages: a time before the dominance of Men and the dwindling of the Elves and other races.[citation needed]
References in adaptations
The Lord of the Rings film trilogy made by Peter Jackson mentions the Elder Days sparingly. In The Fellowship of the Ring extended edition, Lúthien and Beren are briefly mentioned. Morgoth is too mentioned in passing by Legolas, but it is never stated who he is.
In the later The Hobbit films, notable references include the mentioning of Gondolin and Ungoliant.
