Lindon au 3eme age
#23
Bon, pour Harlond et Forlond, j'ai peut-être la réponse finale,
et elle est sur encyclopedia of arda. C'est vraiment LA reference du web pour peu qu'on connaisse un minimum d'anglais.

Forlond :
A harbour that lay on the northern shore of the Gulf of Lhûn, in the Elvish land of Forlindon. Its precise location is open to question. In Appendix A to The Lord of the Rings, there's an account of the arrival of the Gondorian general Eärnur in Lindon, where we're told that his ships filled the Forlond. That account strongly suggests that the harbour represented no more than the northern part of Mithlond, the Grey Havens. According to the maps that accompany The Lord of the Rings, though, the Forlond was placed some two hundred miles to the west of the Havens, at the mouth of the Gulf of Lhûn.
Whichever of these alternatives is correct, we can be sure that it lay on the northern shore of the Gulf, because the name Forlond is derived from the Elvish for 'north haven'. It had an equivalent on the southern shore, too: the Harlond or 'south haven'.

Harlond :
An Elf-haven on the southern shores of the Gulf of Lhûn, whose name in fact means 'south-haven'. It precise positioning is open to debate; in Appendix A to The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien writes of it as the southern part of the Grey Havens, but the map that accompanies the book shows it as a small inlet about 150 miles west of Mithlond.

En gros, les deux carrés composant Mithlond seraient Harlond et Forlond.
