Men Harad

The Men Harad (S. "Harad Road") was the common name used in southern Gondor for the trade route through Harondor which linked it to the lands of Haradwaith. Gondorians also referred to the actual roads that were part of this trade route as the Men Harad. Scholars and those living south of Gondor knew that the true Men Harad was a major caravan road that branched off from the Rath Khand, south of the Methiant Khand. The Men Harad of the Gondorians incorporated portions of the Hyarmentie and Men Harnen before joining with the caravan route to the kingdoms of eastern Harad.
