For some reason I keep thinking about dwarves and dwarf trade when I am in chat(if you haven't noticed). Anyway, we have discussed what they would have traded and how they would have gotten it into Moria. But now a few of us are discussing who they would have traded with. Well, before the First Age, would Moria have traded with other dwarf cities in touch with Beleriand? There wouldn't have been anyone else to trade with in the imediate area like in the second and third age. And in the First Age would they have traded less with Elves and more with Men?
