Marhari (died T.A. 1856) was a Northman descended from the Kingdom of Rhovanion and a member of the royal house. His distant ancestor was King Vidugavia.[1]
In T.A. 1851, a tribe of Easterlings called the Wainriders began invading from the East.[2] Marhari led the soldiers of Rhovanion, together with the armies of Gondor under King Narmacil II, against the invaders at the Battle of the Plains in 1856. The battle was a disaster, as Narmacil was killed[2] and Marhari fell in his rearguard. The Wainriders then overran Rhovanion and enslaved its people.[3]
Marhari's son Marhwini led a group of refugees west to the Vales of Anduin. They would become the Éothéod, the ancestors of the mighty Riders of Rohan.[3]

Etymology
Marhari is a Gothic name meaning 'horse-soldier'. The first element is related to English "mare" (see mearas).[4] The second element -hari is a simplified version of Gothic -harya "armyman, warrior" (seen also in Vinitharya) to indicate a later age.
In Old English this element became -here and is seen in the later Rohirric name Dúnhere which translates as "hill warrior".
