The Middle-earth Mysteries

about the South Downs? What prevented people from living there? What became of Tharbad's people when that town was finally deserted? Did they wander north to the Angle and join the Dunedain who lived there? It seems the Dunedain should have prospered, and either many of them left for other parts of the world (perhaps going south to Gondor), or many must have perished in the wilds of Eriador. There are so many questions about Middle-earth that one can almost picture an "In Search Of..." going on year after year, proposing bizarre theories which attempt to resolve the various mysteries. These unanswerable questions lend a great deal to the perception of "depth" we often speak of in Middle-earth. They are like glimpses of mountains on the distant horizon which we'll never approach. The answers are there, beyond our reach, forever lost to us.
