Yellow Mountains

In the Spring of Arda the world had a rather symmetrical design. The YellowMountains were part of the 4 major surrounding mountains (the Blue, Red-, Yellow- and Grey- Mountains) in North - South direction. But this design did not last very long:

But the symmetry of the ancient Earth was changed and broken in the first {Battle of the Gods}?, when Valinor went out against Utumno, which was Melko's stronghold, and Melko was chained. Then the Sea of Helkar (which was the northern lamp) became an inland sea or great lake, but the sea of Ringil (which was the southern lamp) became a great sea flowing north-eastward and joining by straits both the Western and Eastern Seas.
HoMeIV - The Ambarkanta

Afterwards the YellowMountains must have become part of the DarkLand? ("SouthLand?"), which usually shows on the maps of the FirstAge.
