Third Age 3009
From Tolkien Gateway
Third Age 3009 (abbreviated to T.A. 3009) is the 3009th year of the Sun of the Third Age of Middle-earth. Third Age 3009 was also known as S.R. 1409 in Shire-reckoning.
Notable events in this year include:
- Gandalf and Aragorn renew their hunt for Gollum at intervals during the next eight years, searching in the vales of Anduin, Mirkwood, and Rhovanion to the confines of Mordor. At some time during these years Gollum himself ventured into Mordor, and was captured by Sauron. Elrond sends for Arwen, and she returns to Imladris; the Mountains and all lands eastward are becoming dangerous.[1]
- Death of Dudo Baggins.[2]
