Denethor I is in J. R. R. Tolkien's fictional universe of Middle-earth the tenth Ruling Steward of Gondor.
Denethor, son of Rían the younger sister of the previous Steward Dior, succeeded his uncle at his death in T.A. 2435 and inherited a generally peaceful realm. However, an end came to this when Ithilien was suddenly attacked by fierce Orcs of an unknown kind: the Uruk-hai. Ithilien was lost and its people were slain or fled to other lands of Gondor.
He had three children: first two daughters, then a son.
He was followed by his only son Boromir at his death in 2477.
