Lord of BrethilRuler of the People of HalethA title used of any of those who ruled the Men of Brethil after their people were led to that forest land by Haleth, and granted leave to remain there by Thingol. Haleth herself had no children, so she was succeeded by her nephew Haldan. From Haldan were descended a line of four other recorded Lords: Halmir, Haldir, Handir and finally Brandir the Lame, who was slain by Túrin after the defeat of Glaurung.
The Silmarillion makes no mention of the Lordship of Brethil after the death of Brandir, but according to volume XI of The History of Middle-earth a new Lord was chosen. As Brandir had died without issue, he was succeeded by Hardang son of Hundad, who was descended through a lesser branch from the line of Haldan the first Lord.
