The House of Dol Amroth was a noble house of Gondor whose male heirs were the Princes of Dol Amroth descended from Galador the first prince. Legend told that his father, Imrazôr the Númenórean married a Silvan Elf named Mithrellas, and from that time forward the house and kin were noble by blood and fair in face and mind.[1]

The line of the Princes of Dol Amroth, though they were certainly Men, in fact claimed a measure of Elvish blood. It was said that the first Prince, Galador, was half-elven: his father was Imrazôr the Númenórean, but his mother was an Elf-maid, Mithrellas. Imrahil was Galador's direct descendant through twenty-one generations, and so could himself claim distant descent from Mithrellas.
