Title
FINGER RING
Description
English:

A complete gold engraved finger ring of probable second-age date, c. SA 1600. The inscription in the Black Speech of Mordor reads:

"Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul, ash nazg thrakatulûk, agh burzum-ishi krimpatul"

Translated: One ring to rule them all, One ring to find them. One ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them.


Finger rings such as these were frequently used to enslave millions of people, elves and other dark creatures.
