Celepharn
Pronunciation: kehleh'farn
Celepharn was the fourth King of Arthedain. During his reign the lands of Gondor reached their most prosperous point under the reign of Atanatar Alcarin.
The Periannath (Hobbits) who had been living in the lands of Eriador for over a century, were called the Harfoots, and they had appeared during the time of Beleg of Arnor. During the reign of Celepharn though, the numbers of Hobbits increased when the Stoors and the Fallohides fled westward from the growing shadow in Mirkwood Forest.
Celepharn reigned from TA 1108 until TA 1189, and died in TA 1191. He was succeeded by his son Celebrindor.
