Belthronding

Belthronding was the bow of Beleg Cúthalion.
==History==
Belthronding was a bow of black yew-wood. Beleg might have gotten the name "Strongbow" from Belthronding. It was buried with him by Túrin and Gwindor after the accidental slaying of Beleg at the hands of Túrin, his friend.The Silmarillion, Quenta Silmarillion, Chapter XXI: "Of Túrin Turambar"
==Etymology==
In Sindarin, Belthronding is comprised of the words bel ("strong"), staran or thron ("stiff, hard"), and ding ("an onomatopoeic variant of ting").The History of Middle-earth, Vol. V: The Lost Road and Other Writings, Part Three: "The Etymologies"
==Other versions of the legendarium==
In earlier writings, the great bow of Beleg was called "Balthronding".The History of Middle-earth, Vol. III: The Lays of Beleriand, I: "The Lay of the Children of Húrin", Notes
