I have done a lot of research on the dates this but if anyone wants to know where I got this information from about the dates it is mostly from unfinished tales and the Tolkien gateway website. The numenoreans were the Greatest race of men ever to dwell in middle earth. Descents of the men of the edain of the first age who were gifted the island of Elenna for their courage. After hundreds of years of succes and prospering the last king, ar-pharazon, broke the rule of the valar and sailed west with the numenorean armada to attack valinor but the intervention of eru changed the shape of the world ending all numenorean life save some the faithful who escaped with elendil and those who already dwelt in middle earth. Here are a few of my favourites of the great kings and Queens of numenor:
Tar-minyatur (Elros)
Elros was the first king of numenor, the son of elwing and earendil, brother of Elrond half-elven and uncle to Arwen undomniel. After an attack on his homeland Elrond and elros were raised by the sons of feanor, Meahdros and maglor. Unlike his brother Elrond Elros chose to be a mortal man but was still gifted with a lifespan longer than any other men. Elros laid down the throne in the year 442 after ruling for 410 years and lived until he laid down his life at 500 years old.
Tar-Aldarion
Tar aldarion was born in the year 700. He formed the guild of adventures. He became the sixth king of numenor when he succeeded his farther Tar-menaldur. His wife was erendis a numenorean of lesser status as Aldarion meaning she had a shorter lifespan. Aldarion took many many journeys to middle earth visiting elves like Gil-galad an cirdan and formed a special bond between the men of numenor and the elves of Lindon. Aldarion loved the sea and collected timber for his boats from the land of numenor against the will of his farther and wife untill he was forbidden and took timber from the lands of middle earth. He had only one child, a daughter, who was raised by Erendis after she and Aldarion split in 882. He ruled for 192 years before surrendering the sceptre to his daughter in 1075.
Tar-ancalime
Tar ancalime was the daughter and only child of Erendis Tar-Aldarion. She was the first Queen of numenor. She had the longest reighn for any monarch after Elros reighning for 205 years. She was born in the year 873. She surrendered the throne and died five years later in 1285. She married hallacar son of hallatan, a descendant of vardamir in the year 1000. After the birth of her son anarion there was strife between ancalime and hallacar. After the death of her farther in 1098 she neglected his policy's and offered no more help too Gil-galad.
Tar-palantir
He was born in the year 3035 and ruled for 78 years untill his death in the year 3255. He repented of the ways of the king's before him and returned to the friendship of the eldar. His mother Lindore raised him in secret from his father teaching him the ways of the faithful. In his reighn he and the leader of the king's men gimilkhad had almost constant strife, but for a while the faithful had peace. He would go often to the sacred peak of meneltarma and the white tree of nimloth was given tendence and honour. Tar-palantir had no son and one daughter, Miriel who was forcefully taken as a wife by pharazon son of gimilkhad who then forced the sceptre to his own hand and took the title ar-pharazon.
Ar-pharazon
Ar-pharazon was the last and mightiest of all the king's of numenor. His chief advisor was sauron who twisted his mind into the worship of melkor. He built a temple for the worship of melkor where there were human sacrifices of the faithful the tree of nimloth was burnt and he broke the rule of the valar and sailed west into valinor. He was born in the year 3118 and ruled for 64 years and died in the downfall in 3319 when eru destroyed numenor.
