⭐ Core Definition: Ranger of the North

In J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth writings, the Dúnedain (Sindarin pronunciation: [ˈduːnɛˌdaɪn]; sing.Dúnadan; lit.'Man of the West') were a race of Men, also known as the Númenóreans or Men of Westernesse (translated from the Sindarin term). Those who survived the sinking of their island kingdom and came to Middle-earth, led by Elendil and his sons, Isildur and Anárion, settled in Arnor and Gondor.

After the Downfall of Númenor, the name Dúnedain was reserved to Númenóreans who were friendly to the Elves: hostile survivors of the Downfall were called Black Númenóreans.
