Canoheth

Neo Noch

One could argue the term Canoheth and Neo Noch are names for the same ethnic people. The people we in the modern day know as the Neo Noch, called themselves the Canoheth when their culture flourished after all. However, the scholars of the Jenuwan Order categorize them as two different groups. Or rather, that the term Canoheth refers to the culture post Gilgurth impact, while Neo Noch refers to the pre impact people.

Legends claim the few Neo Noch survivors of Gilgurth's destruction fled south into Monanad, the Great Jungle of the South, settling on the southern side of a flaming mountains. These mountains are considered by most to be Daranoth Mountains.

The Canoheth are said to have lived in pit houses, dug into the mountainside, with domed or sloped wood roofs overhead. These homes were scattered around the mountain, with no central community center. The Canoheth used the heat of the mountains in their homes and lived as hunter-gatherers. The men traveling and hunting, while the women remained at home, growing root plants and crafting needed tools for their families. Eventually these people built the rock-hewed structure known as Anohei to be the center of their culture.

These people had no written language that is known of. All that is understood of the Canoheth comes from what other cultures of the periods claimed, in the few records that have survived the ages. It is known that the Canoheth were powerful in Magic and could contend with the Green Dragonof their region. These people were largely known to other contemporary cultures as the people of Jade. The Canoheth are understood to be the first miners, workers, and traders of jade on the major continent of Ethae.
