Haerangil o Pelargir was a Dúnadan Scholar and magician who lived in the late and early Fourth Age.A native of Pelargir Haerangil left Gondor as a very young man around TA 2970, joining a group of yound adventurers, and probably returned at the beginning of the Fourth Age.Haerangil had followed the traces of his númenórean ancestors, a journey that had brought him to the haven of Umbar and the coastal lands of Far Harad as far south as the Mûmakan.In the early fourth Age he put down in writing many of his experiences and gathered Lore about the Southlands in a book known as the Parma Hyarmenórion. The Parma Hyarmenórion was perhaps written during the years FA 10-20, but having been a learned sage, Haerangil had used the ancient terms for the two regions called by the indigenous Black Númen

  • Haerangil o Pelargir was a Dúnadan Scholar and magician who lived in the late and early Fourth Age.A native of Pelargir Haerangil left Gondor as a very young man around TA 2970, joining a group of yound adventurers, and probably returned at the beginning of the Fourth Age.Haerangil had followed the traces of his númenórean ancestors, a journey that had brought him to the haven of Umbar and the coastal lands of Far Harad as far south as the Mûmakan.In the early fourth Age he put down in writing many of his experiences and gathered Lore about the Southlands in a book known as the Parma Hyarmenórion. The Parma Hyarmenórion was perhaps written during the years FA 10-20, but having been a learned sage, Haerangil had used the ancient terms for the two regions called by the indigenous Black Númenóreans Khâradûnê (Hyarmenúrë, the Southern Heat) and Ûrêzâin (the Far Sunlands), and mentioned Ugruzâyan (the southern continent beyond the Inner Sea). Haerangil had claimed to have traveled the Harad in the Third Age, visiting the Utter South during the zenith of Mûmakanda power, however his claims did not remain uncontested by his contemporaries,as many of the names Haerangil mentioned in his accounts seem to have been derived from far earlier records and presumably lost documents, why some Loremasters accused Haerangil to have forged, at least great parts,of his travel literature and to have passed off information he had only collected (probably in the libraries of Umbar, where Haerangil had been known to have been a resident for over a decade) as his own memorization. But even if The Parma Hyarmenorion and Haerangil's lesser writings had to be taken with a grain of salt, they still remained the most important source of information about southern Middle-Earth availabe for the Gondorians and their descendants in later Ages.
