Tumnogoth iaur

The valley once ruled by the Firebeards from Nornhabar, essentially abandoned in the Second Age. Later settlements of Dwarves (of various tribes) existed here in the late Third Age, from ca. 1810, with the emigration of a Broadbeams clan from the Nan-i-Naugrim, and ca. 1990 when a group from Khazad-dûm revived the old agreements with the Harlindonnim, forming a small community under the leadership of a Firebeard craftsman. But these Dwarves were forced from the upper slopes around Nornhabar with the onset of colder winters, and resettled in the valley beneath, building sturdy houses at the confluence of the Nogothir and the Belechir.
