Early Quenya

kiris iluqingatelda

place name. Gully of the Rainbow Roof

In an early name list, Qenya cognate of G. Cris a Teld Quing Ilon, precursor to S. Cirith Ninniach (PE13/101). It is a combination of kiris “cleft”, iluqinga “rainbow” and telda “(having a) roof”, as suggested by Christopher Tolkien (LT2A/Teld Quing Ilon). In one early name list it appeared beside a variant form Kiris Ilqintelimba (PE13/101) where the second element contained telimbo “canopy”. Yet another variant form, Ilwerantelimba appeared in a different name list (PE15/21), with the initial element ilweran(ta) “rainbow”.
