Celebrindor

Celebrindor (Third Age 1062 - Third Age 1272, died aged 210) was the fifth King of Arthedain.

History

Celebrindor was the son of Celepharn, and came to the throne of Arthedain upon his father's death in Third Age 1191. His reign as king was uneventful, as relations between the other realms of Arnor - Cardolan and Rhudaur - were good, and no evil threatened the realm yet - it was after Celebrindor's death that Angmar started to pose a threat to the peoples of Arnor.

Celebrindor died in 1272 after ruling the Northern Kingdom for eighty-one years. He was succeeded by his son Malvegil upon his death.

Etymology

Celebrindor is a Sindarin name. Its meaning is not glossed, but Paul Strack suggests it means "Silver-lord" and is a combination of celebrin ("silver", "like silver [in hue or worth]") and the suffixal form -dor ("king", "lord").
