Bridge over the river Uvac, Žvale (1975)
The bridge over the Uvac river is today at the bottom of the Uvac lake. Thankfully, the remains were preserved and protected before the immersion. (Hi-Res)

Text: The bog is alive, begging for spare teeth each time I cross the old wooden bridge. Everyone tells me to ignore it, but I feel bad, and feed it every baby one I lose.

Hey Tolkien people and history buffs of Tumblr, I'm in need of your assistance. Does anybody know if there was an actual historical inspiration (or many) to the narrow, no rails, stone bridge of Khazad-dûm?
For context, I'm trying to use it as an example in my theoretical physics dissertation on the dynamics of pedestrians moving in a single line, but I've already met with some resistance from advisors with No Taste. All my google searches have conducted to analyses of the effectiveness of the Khazad-dûm scene in the book & movie, instead of an analysis of the actual "physical" bridge.
I know I could use other modern examples from construction scaffolds or bus and plane boarding/exiting schemes for single-line movement, but that's boring. Uninspired. Everyone does it. What I want is a badass illustration from The Lord of the Rings, and a JRR Tolkien quote on my very theoretical, so abstract that is basically useless, physics dissertation.
A physicist calls for aid.

"Keep On Keeping On"
I've been in mourning since the cancellation of ofmd was confirmed. In my sadness, I've been playing a lot of Death Stranding, and weirdly it's been helping me cope a little. It's gently reminding me that no, you're not crazy - art fucking matters.
