"Iarwain Ben-Adar, Oldest and Fatherless, who was ruler of the darkness in Middle Earth before Sauron was, before Morgoth set foot there" If he was there before Morgoth set foot there, it must mean he was created at the same time as the world, which means that he is newer than Morgoth. Morgoth/Melkor/Melko is an Ainu from before the world began. He was responsible, in part, for the creation of the world.
