Brythunian

Brythunians are primarily of Hyborian stock. It is known that they tend to have blue eyes and blond hair. The eastern Brythunians have intermarried with the dark-skinned Zamorians. Their women are often of unsurpassing beauty, and favoured by slavers in foreign nations. Being so close to Cimmeria and especially Hyperborea, the people must be constantly ready to fight raiders. Brythunians usually worship Mitra, although it seems possible that small cults might still worship Bori, the founder of the Hyborian people.
Culture: Most Brythunians live in small villages of wattle-and-daub huts. In the central regions, these villages are set into copses of trees, while in the northeastern highlands, they are perched upon the tops of high crags. Where necessary, steps and footholds are carved into the rock to ensure easy climbing, and most Brythunian villages have at least one horse-path. In the fertile central plains, farming feeds most Brythunians, but in the highlands men hunt to survive. Women remain at home, weaving, embroidering and raising children. A Brythunian widow moves in with her husband's brother or her own family.
Religion: Brythunians in the populated central plains are usually Mitra worshipers, although there is some worship of the gods of Turan and Zamora.
Brythunian names are Italian and Teutonic in tone. Examples: (male) Aratus; (female) Hildico, Natala.
