History
He following his father, in Chieftainship, when Araglas died in 2455.
His rule coincided with the end of the Watchful Peace, when Sauron returned to Dol Guldur with increased strength.[3] Also during his rule, orcs began to increase and multiply in the Misty Mountains; it was then when they revealed themselves, waylaying Celebrían and her escort.[4]
Arahad died in 2523, after having ruled for sixty-eight years, and was followed by his son, Aragost.[2]
Etymology
Arahad's name is Sindarin, but its etymology is uncertain. It contains the usual royal prefix ara- meaning "king", but the had is a little harder to work out. It could be had meaning "hurl, throw", it could be sad (lenited to had) meaning "place, spot", or it could be related to sador meaning "faithful person".
