In briefanswer capsule

When Thangorodrim collapsed and the ground heaved, Ered Luin split open southward in Ossiriand and seawater filled the rift. The river Lhûn then entered that bay by an altered path, so the bay was named after it. The Noldor called the land Lindon; along the coast the Eldar established Mithlond and berthed numerous vessels there.
