In ancient times, the wild lands between the rivers Isen and Lefnui, and the mountainous promontory of Andrast, were home to a large population of Drúedain, called Púkel-men by the Rohirrim. By the end of the Third Age, these people were thought to be extinct, and thus the region was known in Elvish as Drúwaith Iaur. That name translates directly as 'Old Púkel-land', but it was also sometimes known as the 'Old Púkel-wilderness'.
