TCG Letter #1749

Wayne Hammond and Christina Scull note that Wheeler wrote to Tolkien on 2 January 1932, ^{Letter from R.E.M. Wheeler to J.R.R. Tolkien • 2 January 1932 (#1750)[1]} asking Tolkien to return to 'Nodens' note, but that Tolkien had evidently already sent it as Wheeler writes another letter ^{Letter from R.E.M. Wheeler to J.R.R. Tolkien • 2 January 1932 (#1751)[2]} on the same day thanking him for it. We do not know the exact date of Tolkien's letter.^{See Chronology, p. 173, entry for '2 January 1932'.[3]}

In July 1932 Tolkien’s note 'The Name ‘Nodens’' is published as Appendix A in Report on the Excavation of the Prehistoric, Roman, and Post-Roman Site in Lydney Park, Gloucestershire by R.E.M. Wheeler and T.V. Wheeler.
