In J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, Ciryon was Isildur's third son. He was sent with his older brother Aratan to garrison the city of Minas Ithil and the pass of Cirith Ungol on the borders of Mordor and Ithilien. He died in the year 2 of the Third Age at the Battle of the Gladden Fields, along with the rest of the bodyguard of his father Isildur, including his two elder brothers.
