Dol Guldur

The name Dol Guldur might not have been given to the fortress until circa Third Age 1050. Before that it might have been known under a different name. And, though I proposed that Dol Guldur had come under control of one or more of the Ringwraiths, it might instead have been commanded by a Black Númenórean servant of Sauron, perhaps even an ancestor of the Mouth of Sauron. Of course the evil reputation of the fortress could have begun even earlier than I've suggested, Sauron's forces could have originally seized control of it during the War of the Last Alliance only for it to be abandoned for centuries after the Dark Lord's defeat.

Another mystery introduced by the entombment of the Nine is how the line of Anarion ended. Obviously, in the continuity of the Peter Jackson films, King Earnur of Gondor could not have been done in by the Witch-King as the Lord of the Nazgul.
