Minas Morgul
Minas Morgul (. Sindarin: ''Tower of Black Sorcery''), also known by its earlier name of Minas Ithil (Sindarin: ''Tower of the Rising Moon''), or in its full name Minas Ithil in the Morgul Vale, is a fictional fortified city in J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth.
==Etymology==
Minas Ithil was also called the Tower of the Moon, the Tower of the Rising Moon, and the Moon-tower. Minas Morgul was also called the Dead City and the Tower of Sorcery.
In Tolkien's fictional elvish language, Sindarin, ''Minas Ithil'' means "Tower of the Moon"〔 and ''Minas Morgul'' means "Tower of Black Sorcery."〔 The word ''minas'' means "tower." The word ''ithil'' is a poetic name for the Moon from ''sil'' or ''thil'' meaning "shine with white or silver light." The word ''morgul'' means "black sorcery" or "black arts." The element ''mor'' means "black, dark" and ''gûl'' means "sorcery, magic" from the stem ''ngol-'' (Quenya cognate ''nólë'') meaning "long study, lore, knowledge."
