History

Golasgil led a long line of men to Minas Tirith before the Battle of Pelennor Fields. All that he commanded - hunters, herdsmen, and villagers - were scantily equipped save for his own household.[1] However, since he was not mentioned among the fallen in the Song of the Mounds of Mundburg it appears that he did survive the great battle.[2]

Portrayal in adaptations

2007: The Lord of the Rings Online:

Golasgil is found on the second level of Minas Tirith, overlooking the training of his soldiers.
