Númenor
Drowned island civilization
Númenor is a fictional island kingdom in J.R.R.
Tolkien's mythology, a great civilization of Men blessed with long life and wisdom by the godlike Valar.
Its eventual corruption and catastrophic destruction—sunk beneath the waves when its king sought immortality—echoes the Atlantis myth.
The word appears in discussions of Tolkien's legendarium and adaptations: The show explores the fall of Númenor.
