The Palantir of Amon Sul

and Jewelry > Palantiri
In harmony with the Unfinished Tales of Numenor and
Middle-Earth, a Palantir (seeing stone) there was upon Amon Sul
(in the later ages to be called, by those of Bree, Weathertop).
The palantir abiding at Amon Sul was one of the foremost of the seven
stones made by Feanor in Aman and brought from Numenor by Elendil and
his sons, Isildur and Anarion. The custom of the stone was mainly that
Arnor could perceive the goings on of Gondor.
The destruction of Amon Sul in 1409 by the
Sauron-influenced realm of Angmar resulted in the Numenorean remnant's
moving the palantir to Fornost. The Lord of the Ringwraiths (Nazgul)
was ruler of Angmar until the end of his time either by force or length
of days.
