Belecthor IThe fifteenth Ruling Steward of GondorThe son of Húrin II, born soon after the settlement of Rohan (the Golden Hall of Meduseld was completed when Belecthor was twenty-four years old, so he may even have been a guest at the feast to mark its founding). He succeeded his father at the age of eighty-three to become Gondor's fifteenth Ruling Steward. His twenty-seven year rule was free of incident, or at least no annals of any significant events during his Stewardship have come down to us. Belecthor was the ancestor of two lines of Ruling Stewards. He himself was succeeded by his son Orodreth, and Orodreth by his own son Ecthelion I, but Ecthelion produced no heir. Hence the line of the Stewards was reckoned back to Belecthor I, and passed to the descendants of his daughter Morwen. Egalmoth, Morwen's grandson, was the first Steward of this new line to take office. Notes
