Hill dwarf is a term used for dwarves that live primarily in the hills. Hill dwarves are found in Khaz Modan, Aerie Peaks, Northeron, Grim Batol and the Hinterlands. The Wildhammer dwarves (aka wild dwarves)and Bronzebeard dwarves have been described as having hill dwarves (LoC 19) or mountain dwarves. A clan of Bronzebeard hill dwarves helped take back an area near Grim Batol during the Second War. They thought they could claim the mountain fortress and all of Grim Batol as theirs again. (DotD 371) But it seems most left the area. (NotD #?)
