In one of the most remote and isolated areas of north-western Endor there was a land so obscure that it fell within no recognized region, being reckoned apart from all others. This was Drúwaith Iaur, or Old Púkel-land.
History[]
ca. T.A. 1640[]
Drúwaith Iaur, also known as Old Púkel-land, was a territory of Gondor which fell into a state of desertion. Due to the depopulation caused by the Great Plague and the resulting migrations, no Dúnedain remained in Drúwaith Iaur by T.A. 1640. Scattered tribes of Dunmen (Dunir) and Drúedain (Wild Men of Drúwaith Iaur) now ruled the territory which was once administered by Gondor. The urban folk of eastern Gondor often failed to distinguish Drúwaith Iaur from the marches of Anfalas, claiming that it was all nothing but the "domain of Wild Men". King Tarondor still claimed the land, but he did not expect Gondor to resettle the territory within his lifetime, since other matters were more pressing. The few settlers who still inhabited the Westmarch to the east viewed the region with anxiety, for in it's wild terrain they saw a possible future for themselves.
