Ingwë Ingweron | The High King of all the Elves



Ingwë is the King of the Vanyar and the High King of all the Elves. He was the leader of the first Kindred of Elves of the Vanyar tribe and his name means “first one, Chief” in Quenya.


Ingwë was reckoned as High King of all the Eldalië, the Elves of the Great Journey, and because of this he is called Ingwë Ingweron, the “Chief of the Chieftains”. He lived in Taniquetil, ruling from beneath Manwë High King of Arda.

The 7th-century Sutton Hoo ship burial was discovered in July 1939, on the eve of the Second World War.

One of the most important discoveries from Anglo-Saxon England, the undisturbed burial produced many significant objects. Examples of exquisite craftsmanship like these stunning gold cloisonné accessories show how advanced Anglo-Saxon metalwork was by this time.

The Strickland Brooch from England dated to the 9th Century on display at the British Museum in London

This silver brooch is an especially fine piece of Anglo-Saxon jewellery. Its intricate pattern of animated animals with glittering gold bodies and blue glass eyes in inlaid with niello, a black metal alloy that was popular at this time. The mixture of materials is unusual for a brooch of this date and was probably worn by someone of high status and wealth.
