High King Ithilion wrote: "The Men of Númenor were settled far and wide on the shores and seaward regions of the Great Lands, but for the most part they fell into evils and follies. Many became enamoured of the Darkness and the black arts; some were given over wholly to idleness and ease, and some fought among themselves, until they were conquered in their weakness by the wild men."

This is damning evidence against the Numenoreans in Far Harad tbh. Also note that that army was *led* by the Numenoreans, not made of them. Furthermore, those Numenoreans were the exiled lords of Umbar.

Ithilion, Discussions Moderator (Auta i lómë) 19:27, May 27, 2017 (UTC) There are two ways to interpret that quote:


 * All Númenóreans who settled in Far Harad were eventually conquered by wild men.
 * Of the Númenóreans who settled in Far Harad, only those who fell into evils and follies were conquered by wild men.
