| | Encyclopedia of Arda: King of Durin’s Folk |
 | | From time to time over the millennia, one among Durin's descendants would arise so similar in bearing to his ancient ancestor that he, too, would be given the name 'Durin'. | | | (Ruled to III 1980) The first King of Durin's Folk for whom we have specific dates was Durin VI, who ruled in Khazad-d& at the time the Balrog was awoken. | | | We can safely deduce their existence because we know that Durin VI took the throne in the late second millennium of the Third Age. |

| | Tolkien Crackpot Theories |
| | Therefore Durin IV Lionheart brooded upon gems, and where they might be discovered, and such was the power of the Ring he bore that the brooding became a lust, and the lust an obsession, so that Durin never slept save to dream of gems. | | | So when Durin woke, the vision filled him, and he knew somehow (for the dark thought of Sauron was upon the Ring) in what region the mine lay; and he prepared for a journey, and departed from Khazad-dum with but a few retainers: for indeed he held the secret of his vision close. | | | And the Rings led their possessors to riches, for the Dwarves desired wealth, and bent their thoughts upon finding it, so that the rich veins of the earth were revealed to them. |

| | Durin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The name Durin, like other names of Tolkien's Dwarves, was taken from old Norse: this was later explained by the translation fiction: because Westron was translated with English, the language of Dale was translated with Old Norse. | | | Durin was called the Deathless because he was believed not to die, but rather to fall asleep, and reïncarnate in his own line. | | | Durin VI was the last reincarnation of Durin the Deathless, and the first to be slain. |

| | The passage says only: "Of the Dwarves few fought upon either side; but the kindred of Durin of Moria fought against Sauron." If he was named Durin, then he could not have been Durin III, because that was the Durin who opposed Sauron in the War of the Elves and Sauron (Unfinished Tales, p. | | | Since his realm lay so close to Lorinand he must have mustered his army close to Amdir's. | | | Claiming that this king was actually named Durin may be erroneous. |

| | In this way the "independent-minded" Silvan Elves would be in a position to support Gil-galad without being hemmed in by his own forces. | | | Isildur's sons Elendur, Aratan, and Ciryon might also have been in attendance; at the very least Elendur was probably there. | | | Sauron probably met the Alliance forces somewhere near the Undeeps, but seeing that he was outnumbered he fell back, destroying the ancient Entish domain north of the Emyn Muil (later known as "The Brown Lands") in an attempt to slow the advance of the Alliance43. |

| | Articles: Dwarves |
| | "Durin" is the translation Tolkien offers for the Mannish name which meant "king", and it was more a title than a name which eventually did become a name. | | | It may be that when Durin VII eventually resettled Khazad-dum early in the Fourth Age the Dwarves of Ered Luin also experienced a sort of renaissance, their last bloom before the final, sad diminishment and disappearance of their race. | | | Durin's Folk were possibly the most outgoing of all the Dwarves, interacting with Elves, Men, and Hobbits to one degree or another. |

| | Durin's Folk, under command of King Durin IV, also aided Elendil and Gil-galad by sending a host of Dwarves from Three of the Seven Houses of Dwarves. | | | Durin IV survived this siege and afterwards returned to Khazad-dûm. | | | Fearing the establishment of the powerful kingdoms in exile — Arnor and Gondor — by his hated enemies, the Dúnedain, Sauron launched a preemptive attack on Gondor in S.A. In response, Elendil, High King of the Dúnedain, formed an alliance with Gil-galad, the High King of the Eldar, to repel Sauron's assault. |
