Turgon (Steward)In J. R. R. Tolkien's fictional universe of Middle-earth, Turgon was the twenty-fourth Ruling Steward of Gondor. He succeeded his father Trin II at his death in T.A. 2914. During his rule, Barad-dr was re-occupied by Sauron, and in the north Saruman proclaimed himself Lord of Isengard. Turgon was powerless to stop both events; at the time, Saruman was still considered an ally, though in fact he had not only made himself independent of Gondor, but had effectively stolen Isengard and was becoming a traitor. Turgon was followed by his son Ecthelion II at his death in 2953.
Another Turgon was an Elven king who had lived much earlier.
