Hareth (b. F.A. 420)[1] was the elder daughter of Halmir, chieftain of the Haladin, and sister of Haldir, Hundar,[2] and Hiril.[3]

In F.A. 436[4] she married Galdor, lord of the House of Hador, and bore him two sons, Húrin and Huor.[2]

Etymology

Hareth also appears in Tûr Haretha, the "Ladybarrow", so the name probably means "Lady" in the Haladin tongue.[5]

Robert Foster also suggests that Hareth means "Lady",[4] however the entry erroneously labels the name as Quenya.
