S. amloth n. “helm crest, (orig.) uprising flower” (Category: Helmet)

S. amloth, n. “helm crest, (orig.) uprising flower” (Category: Helmet)

An element meaning “uprising flower” in the name Ægamloth (archaic for Egamloth) “Pointed Helm-crest” (WJ/318). Tolkien indicated this word was not Sindarin, and it was probably borrowed from Q. ambalotsë of the same meaning. As such, it likely refer only to a helm crest, not a flower.
