Stewards of Gondor

The Stewards of Gondor were lords in Gondor, a fictional kingdom in J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium of Middle-earth. Steward (Arandur in Quenya, one of the languages invented by Tolkien) was the traditional title of a chief counsellor to the Kings of Gondor. The office arose early in the Third Age during the reign of King Rómendacil I. After the Stewardship of Húrin of Emyn Arnen the office was awarded only to his descendants (the House of Húrin). The Ruling Stewards were also styled Lords of Minas Tirith, Minas Tirith being the capital city of Gondor.
