Húrin II (Third Age 2515[1] – 2628,[2] aged 113 years) was the fourteenth Ruling Steward of Gondor.
History
Húrin II, like many of the House of Húrin, was given a name from legends of the First Age.[3] His name came from a hero of that time, Húrin Thalion, the Lord of Dor-lómin.[4] He was actually the third of his family with this name, preceded by Húrin of Emyn Arnen (the founder of the house of the Stewards) and Húrin I (one of the Stewards who had ruled during the Watchful Peace).[5]
Húrin ruled Gondor as its Steward for twenty-three years, and was succeeded by his son, Belecthor I.[2]
Etymology
For the meaning of his name refer to Húrin of Emyn Arnen - Etymology. It is possible that he was named after the hero of the First Age Húrin Thalion or after his ancestor Húrin of Emyn Arnen.
