Kalórmë was a mountain in the middle of the Walls of the Sun on the continent of the Burnt Land of the Sun in the farthest east of Arda.

History[]

Kalórmë seems to be the second-tallest mountain in the world of Arda next to Taniquetil. It seems to have existed from the time after the destruction of the Two Lamps[1] but does not appear on maps after the Change of the World as the Burnt Land of the Sun does not.[2] When seen from afar, looking at it from the Farthest West, it appeared dim. Oromë observed the peak at some point during the Hiding of Valinor.[3][4][5] The Girdle of Arda runs across this peak.[6][7]

Etymology[]

Kalórmë meant 'Sun-rising-hill'.[3]

Trivia[]

The name Kalórmë is similar to that of Calormen found in C. S. Lewis' world of Narnia.
