Notes

1

This map is mainly canonical, with a handful of exceptions: specifically, the locations of the cities of Almaida and Ondosto, and the route of the road running through Ondosto to Andúnië. From descriptions of these features, they must have been in approximately the locations shown, but their geography cannot be considered exact.
