Angband (Sindarin for 'Hells of Iron', although
the literal meaning is 'iron prison') is the name of the fortress of Melkor,
constructed before the First Age, located in the Iron Mountains in the enemy's
realm Dor Daedeloth north of Beleriand.
Morgoth built it to guard against a possible attack
from Aman by the Valar, and put Sauron in command of it. Nonetheless, the Valar's
attack succeeded in capturing Melkor (who had been called 'Morgoth') and destroying
his other stronghold Utumno.
After three ages of imprisonment, Melkor returned
to Middle-earth and set himself up in Angband, raising the volcanic Thangorodrim
over the Fortress as protection. He reigned there until the end of the First
Age, when it was destroyed in the War of Wrath by the army of the Valar.

2. Easterlings of the house of Ulfang
Ulfang also came in Lothlann in Beleriand in the
same year, shortly after Bór. He was the father of Ulfast, Ulwarth, and
Uldor. Ulfang was also welcomed by the sons of Fëanor, and he and his sons
swore allegiance to Caranthir.They were given lands to
dwell in the north and south of the March of Maedhros.
Ulfang and his sons were secretly in the employ
of Morgoth, and betrayed the Eldar and Edain during the Nirnaeth Arnoediad in
what was later known as the Treachery of Men.
For their treachery Ulfang was called the Black
and Uldor, the Accursed. Ulfang and his sons were all slain in the battle.
