According to my sister (a LotR expert), the reason they didn't do that is because the ring could still fall into Sauron's hands after the world is destroyed and re-created.RandomCasualty2 wrote: Seriously it seems like their best bet would just be to give it to the elves on their voyage away from the continent and have one of them toss it in the ocean. If the ring can rest at the bottom of a lake for hundreds of years, then there's no way Sauron is getting it at the depths of the ocean. And that also ensures that no future hobbits or humans find the ring. If the goal was simply to prevent Sauron from getting his hands on the ring, it was actually shown that that was very easy to do, especially if the ring's corruptive influence declines the farther it is from Mordor.
