In briefanswer capsule

Haudh-en-Elleth is Finduilas’s grave-mound near the Teiglin crossings. Brethil’s fighters ambushed an Orc column leading captives away from Nargothrond, intent on a rescue; the Orcs instead killed those prisoners without delay and thrust Finduilas against a trunk by spearpoint. Her body was set in a barrow close by, titled the Elf-maid’s Mound. When Túrin was guided there, grief nearly overcame him.
