-The '''Lord of Eregion''' ([[Celebrimbor]]) was the son of [[Curufin]], who was in turn the son of [[Fëanor]] himself. He became the greatest of the [[Mírdain]], the [[Jewel-smiths]] of [[Eregion]], and was acknowledged as their leader and lord.

-It is not certain whether Celebrimbor was the Lord of Eregion throughout its history. The references to him in [[The Lord of the Rings]] seem to suggest this, but other materials in [[Unfinished Tales]] hint that Eregion might in fact have been founded by [[Galadriel]] and [[Celeborn]], with Celebrimbor only becoming its lord later in its history. This seems to be a point on which [[Tolkien]] changed his mind: the title 'Lord of Eregion' only appeared with the revised edition of The Lord of the Rings.
