Age of Man

Evidence of Neolithic human groups can be found throughout all of the continents of the Lost Lands. When and how they first arose, and whether or in what way they might have been related, is uncertain. It has been noted that one symbol, roughly looking like a cube within a cube (an object known as a tesseract), can be found in cave art and other petroglyphs in many locations separated by thousands of miles.
These early people must have come into contact with the serpent-folk and giants who had been around for, at that point, perhaps hundreds of thousands of years, evidenced by certain obscure legends that come down to us from that time.
During this period, the earliest human proto-civilizations arose. Evidence of agriculture and the beginnings of communities from this time can be found in the regions that would become Khemit, Istaflumina, and Jaati on Libynos, and in the future lands of the Xha’en in western Akados. Based on relics dating from this period, the larger communities appear to have been theocracies, with some evidence of brutal traditions and the enforcement of loyalty through blood. From their weaponry and armor and burials evincing terrible injuries, it is clear that, even in these earliest years, there was conflict among the nascent human realms. In one consistency across thousands of miles, the religious image of the tesseract is widely recognized as a symbol of life and the natural order.
Most scholars assume that the people of the northern continent of Boros, the ancestors of the Hyperboreans, had their origin during this time as well, although no evidence or records have yet been found that could confirm this hypothesis. In addition, there are legends concerning a southern continent, now lost, which was called Notos, on which civilization also arose.
