The Ring of Tamyrlin was a legendary ring, mythical even, from the Age of Legends worn by the leader of the Aes Sedai. Lews Therin Telamon wore the ring[1] , however, no other wearers are known by name. Whether it was an angreal, sa'angreal, or ter'angreal of immense power is unknown, although stories often mention it was one of these. Stories tell that the ring might have been named after the first person who learned how to tap into the True Source and channel. Some other tales say it was made by that person. Contrary to popular Aes Sedai thinking, it cannot be said for certain whether it was a man or woman who first learned to channel. It is possible that the title Amyrlin is a corrupted version of the name Tamyrlin.[2] [3]
"Elan Morin grimaced. "Look at you," he said scornfully. "Once you stood first among the Servants. Once you wore the Ring of Tamyrlin, and sat in the High Seat. Once you summoned the Nine Rods of Dominion. Now look at you!."[1]
