For example the rune text now corresponds exactly with the runes on Thror s Map. More important is the matter of Chapter Five. There the true story of the ending of the Riddle Game as it was eventually revealed under pressure by Bilbo to Gandalf is now given according to the Red Book in place of the version Bilbo first gave to his friends and actually set down in his diary.

Its explanation lies in the history of the Ring as it was set out in the chronicles of the Red Book of Westmarch and is now told in The Lord of the Rings. A final note may be added on a point raised by several students of the lore of the period. On Thror s Map is written Here of old was Thrain King under the Mountain yet Thrain was the son of Thror the last King under the Mountain before the coming of the dragon. The Map however is not in error. Names are often repeated in dynasties and the genealogies show that a distant ancestor of Thror was referred to Thrain I a fugitive from Moria who first discovered the Lonely Mountain Erebor and ruled there for a while before his people moved on to the remoter mountains of the North.
