Elder Days
The Elder Days, also called the Eldest Days, was a term that, during the Second and Third Ages, properly referred to the times that preceded the Downfall of Angband at the very end of the First Age, perhaps covering not only the entire Age, but also the events before the Awakening of the Elves, by which its beginning was marked.
