Early Quenya

osto

noun. gates of the Sun

A word for “the gates of the Sun” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s derived from the root ᴱ√OŘO [OÐO], also the basis for ᴱQ. ōre “dawn”; Tolkien considered transferring it to the root ᴱ√OSO, the basis for wall and town words (QL/70-71).

A name for the “Sun when she issues from her white gates” in the Qenya Lexicon from the 1910s (QL/71), apparently an elaboration of osto “gate”. This name was first given as (rejected) Ostar.
