The Sundering of the Elves refers to the separation of the Elves from their original roots in Cuiviénen. In J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium, the Elves are a sundered people. They awoke at Cuiviénen on the continent of Middle-earth (see: Awakening of the Elves), where they were divided into three tribes: the Minyar (Vanyar), the Tatyar (Ñoldor), and the Nelyar (Teleri). After some time, they were summoned by Oromë to live with the Valar in Aman. That summons and the Great Journey that followed split the Elves into two main groups (and many minor ones), who were never fully reunited.
