Middle-Earth continued
Does anyone know what the rest of ME looked like? I mean, what is beyond Harad, Khand, Rhun and the Northern Waste? [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

In answer to my own question, look at what I've just found:
It was done by a computer though, so it is probably NOT what JRRT imagined it to be...I makes you see how Middle-Earth could be a sort of Pangaea. [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

There were no other drawings of Middle-earth beyond Rhûn or Haradwaith. There are vague outlines of "greater" Middle-earth in a few of the HoMe books, though.

I'm confused [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] well, kinda confused.
Isn't that a world map that's up there? Or is what you found a rendition of the world map, as we know it, to the likeness of ME?

No, it is a map of Middle-Earth [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
When I first saw one map like this, of all Arda, I thought "Lookie! Africa, Europe! Asia!" Nope...It's Middle-Earth... Aylwen

LePetitChoux, where didyou find that map?
My understanding is that ME is our world only thousands of years ago, so it is a kind of Panagea. Here is a posting I put up on this on another topic yesterday (I have no idea how to do a link): Quote:

I thought I got that one here, but that site doesn't appear to work.
While I was searching for the above link, look what I found! It is different, and doesn't make as much sense to me, but hey. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
