The Origin of the Dwarves - Middle Earth Lore

The origin of the dwarves of Middle Earth is a long and varied tale. Tolkien wrote multiple versions of the histories of the dwarves for Lord of the Rings and the legendarium, eventually settling upon Seven Dwarven Kingdoms.

These were the forefathers of the Longbeards, Firebeards, Broadbeams, Ironfists, Stiffbeards, Blacklocks and Stonefoots: the Seven Dwarven bloodlines that would go on to populate Middle Earth alongside the elves, men, hobbits, orcs, and beyond throughout the ages.
