Dor-na-Fauglith This name arose during the composition of
the Lay of the Children of Hurin (see III. 55), where also the
Thirsty Plain is found. On the map this is an emendation of
The Black Plain.

Dwarf-road to Belegost and Nogrod in the South It is inter-
esting that the Dwarf-road is shown as leading all the way
from Nogrod and Belegost in the far South to the very doors
of the Thousand Caves. It is possible, if not very likely, that
the 'Dwarf-road' on the map merely indicates the path
that the Dwarves did in fact take when summoned to
Doriath, rather than a beaten track.

Eredwethion A later replacement of Eryd Lomin, as also in
Q II $15 (note 1).

Eryd Lomin This name occurs in the caption to the painting
of Tol Sirion of July 1928, where, as on the map and in
Q II $15, it refers to the Shadowy Mountains; see
pp. 192-3.

Esgalduin First found in the Lay of the Children of Hurin
(III. 93). It is said in Q ($9) that it 'came out of secret wells
in Taur-na-Fuin', see Shadowy Spring. The course of
Esgalduin was not afterwards changed.

Ginglith First occurs in the Lay of the Children of Hurin
(III. 88). Its course was never changed.

Gondolin Placed as it was to remain. The lines running south
and west from the Encircling Mountains perhaps represent
the hidden 'Way of Escape'.

Hithlum Obviously Hithlum was not intended to extend south
of the Shadowy Mountains, despite the placing of the M.
The contour lines show that the Mountains of Mithrim did
not yet exist. Dorlomin is given as an alternative name, as
it is in S and Q ($8), where Lake Mithrim is placed in
Hisilome/Hithlum/Dorlomin; on the map Mithrim is simply
and solely the name of the lake (cf. III. 103).

Huan That a territory, south and east of Ivrin, is assigned to
Huan shows a very early stage in the legend of Beren and
Luthien, when Huan was independent of any master (see
III. 244).

Isle of the Werewolves The Isle first appears in the Lay of
Leithian in a passage written in March 1928 (see III. 234).
Originally marked on the map S.W. of Gondolin, and with
the river Sirion dividing quite broadly and enclosing a large
