Of course, these observations can be way off, as we have no idea of knowing how exactly dwarves 'come of age' or what is considered 'mature' in their culture. Fili's and Kili's looks in the movies seem right for their age Technically, Gimli isn't 'too young' to join the quest, but maybe Gloin just wants to keep his son safe (?) In the movie version, Thorin's age has been greatly reduced and it is apparent he is much younger than Balin and the rest of the dwarves from that generation The 'older generation' of the dwarves were still quite young-ish during the War of the Dwarves and Orcs Thorin might be the only one who actually remembers the sack of Erebor. For age conversion I used this formula:Įnd of the War of of the Dwarves and Orcs So I thought it would be interesting to see how old the dwarves were when the Hobbit-related major events occurred (in human years). I tried searching for a thread like this but didn't find one (probably due to my lack of forum-searching skills), so apologies if this has already been discussed.įrom "Durin's Folk" from the Appendices of ROTK, we get the Longbeards' family tree which gives the birth/death years of dwarves.
