Description

A reluctant Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, sets out to the Lonely Mountain with a spirited group of dwarves to reclaim their mountain home, and the gold within it from the dragon Smaug. From the 2012 Peter Jackson film The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, this is one of the Gollum’s fish bones that he has eaten to stay alive and can be seen on screen in the cave. Gollum was first introduced in the Hobbit as "a small, slimy creature" who lived on a small island in the center of an underground lake at the roots of the Misty Mountains. He survived on cave fish, which he caught from his small boat, and small goblins that strayed too far from the stronghold of the Great Goblin. Over the years, his eyes adapted to the dark and became "lamp-like", shining with a sickly pale light.
