Tauredain is just a blanket term used by those of Numenorean descent and elves to refer to the people of the jungles. That extends from small nomadic tribes to port cities. Cities which, again, don't exist. Says who? Says reality. Oh boy, the queen of Eurocentrism strikes again. Do me a favor and look up the reconstructions of Tenochtitlan, Tikal or Teotihuacan. We're talking about jungles, here, Argali. Tikal and Teotihuacan are the only examples (of those given), and bad examples, due to how little being actually known. While, yes, there are some fancy ruins there that are classed as "ancient cities" we're talking about the mediaeval era here. That would not be a city. Teotihuacan fell in about the 8th century, and Tikal in the (late) 9th. We're well after that in LotR. Yes because cities existing in the south of middle earth is far more unrealistic than the Fellowship encountering no human civilization between Bree and Rohan. The only way I can explain this is it might just be crappy land. Look at Russia it has areas that for miles has no human settlement.

Which it most definitely isn't equitable to.
