Lightfoot’s foal, swift Snowmane."

—Verse on Snowmane's Howe

Snowmane's Howe was a gave dug into the Pelennor Fields by the Rohirrim.

History

After the Battle of the Pelennor Fields during the War of the Ring, the Rohirrim burned the Witch-king's winged steed before burying Snowmane, the horse of Théoden, in a howe. After which, they erected a stone upon it and engraved a verse into it written in Rohanese and Sindarin.

For many years after, the grass that grew upon Snowmane's Howe was the most green and long of the Pelennor Fields.
