Ioriags

The Ioriag (Io."Ancient ones") were a collection of tribes of the Talataerim, the Plainsmen of the Second Age.

Along with the Ulgath, they were close relatives to the Baradhrim of Beleriand.

The Ioriag lord Ûvatha was one of the nine mannish Kings who accepted a Ring of Power by the Dark Lord and became one of the Nazgûl.

• the Asdriags.
• the Kykuria and Pultai
• the Nûriags
• the Núrniags
