In briefanswer capsule

Dor-Cúarthol, the Land of Bow and Helm, covered the country between the Teiglin and Doriath’s western border. Held from Amon Rûdh, it grew around the Two Captains after Túrin again wore the Helm of Hador and took the name Gorthol. Folk without a captain sought them there. Report of their deeds reached Menegroth, Nargothrond, Gondolin, and Angband; by that helm Morgoth knew Húrin’s son once more, and scouts closed around Amon Rûdh.
