Hobbit coords finder5/3/2023 ![]() This land they named Sûza: the Shire, and divided it into four farthings between the Far Downs and the Brandywine, as they called Baranduin. They were granted the land, with promises to maintain the roads and speed the King's messengers. In TA 1601, the brothers Marcho and Blanco asked permission of Argeleb II, King of Arthedain, to settle in an area west of Baranduin. The tongue of the Stoors was changed by interaction with the Dunlendings, and even to the present maintained many strange words. The Stoors travelled south to other of their kind in Dunland, while the other two wandered to Bree, and settled with the men there. The Harfoots, Fallohides, and some Stoors settled in Rhudaur, but when the power of Angmar rose, they fled. Therefore they fled over the Mountains in TA 1050-1150: First the Harfoots over the Gladden Pass, then the Fallohides and Stoors over the High and Redhorn pass. ![]() Furthermore, the Éothéod had fled north, and men of a new type, cruel and swarthy, were coming through the Forest out of the East. However, the days in the Vale grew darker, for the Hobbits sensed even before the Wise the return of the Shadow to Dol Guldur. ![]() And in the woods lived the smallest tribe, taller and paler, known as the Fallohides. By the banks of the River dwelt the Stoors, somewhat broader and hairier than the Harfoots, and more willing to use boats and associate with Men (who at the time dwelt near, and were known as the Éothéod). The largest, the Harfoots, were representative of most Hobbits-short, with curly hair, dwelling in holes dug in hillsides. They led a peaceful existence, divided into three somewhat different tribes. In their earliest days, the Hobbits dwelt by the River Anduin, in the vale of the same name.
