Fourth Age 171 (abbreviated to Fo.A. 171 or F.O.) is the 171st year of the Sun of the Fourth Age of Middle-earth. Unless otherwise stated, Tolkien Gateway follows Shire usage in Appendix B for reckoning Fourth Age years: Fourth Age 171 was also known as S.R. 1592 in Shire-reckoning.
Notable events in this year include:
- A copy of the Red Book of Westmarch is completed in Gondor by Findegil, the King's Writer.[1][note 1]
Notes
- ↑ The Foreword to The Lord of the Rings gives this date as F.A. 172 or IV 172. However the S.R. year is also given that would correspond to Fo.A. 171 of the Shire; therefore the number 172 given corresponds to the reckoning of Gondor.
