The site said that this place was made up by the webmaster or someone with the site not by Tolkien.  I say get rid of it.  Even though it is an interesting map they do have on there. --[[User:Dwarf Lord|Dwarf Lord]] 00:23, 2 December 2006 (EST)

It is actually on a rare map of Mordor made by Tokien himself. There is a picture of the map in the preface of the movie visual guide to the Return of the King movie adaption. As is the Eastern Desolation, the Eastern Guard, Nargoth, Seregost, and plenty of other things. [[Special:Contributions/76.119.154.139|76.119.154.139]] 23:41, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

Very little in Google which is usually not a good sign. Here's all I can come up with:

  • "The vally is Nan Ungol, meaning spider vally [sic] or vally [sic] of spiders, thats what it says on my giant map, but in the silmarillion it says that it is nan dolomoth, with is the vally of evil death or some such"

It definitely doesn't sound like it is canon but if it's just an early term used by JRRT then I think it's worth having, otherwise if it was just made up for some Roleplaying game then we'll it. --Hyarion 17:14, 27 November 2006 (EST)
