Great Horn
Great Horn in the New Line film
Horn of the Stewards of Gondor. The Great Horn was made from a Kine of Araw, which was killed by Steward Vorondil. He made the horn a royal warior horn. It was very large and had a beautiful, deep sound. Boromir was given the Great Horn by his father Denethor, Steward of Gondor. He always sounded the Horn when he left a place and set out for another place. Elrond of Rivendell advised him never to sound the horn unless aid was needed. He did in Moria and at Amon Hen, where he was killed. The Horn was found in pieces by Boromir's brother Faramir. He brought thewm to Denethor, who held them, weeping about his son's death.
