Homo Sapiens Antiqui

There is extensive evidence of human presence in the ancient fossil records but only up to a few billion years ago. Even accounting for the millions of years missing from the strata, we haven't been able to understand why and how they've come back

Basic Information

Anatomy

The morphology is very similar to that of the modern human beings for most of the population. There are few subspecies and etnicities which have developped according to the region. In addition to that genetic mutations can produce individuals with bulkier bodies, guills, colored skin and even horns or vestigial wings.

Additional Information

Geographic Origin and Distribution

Mosltly in the Pannark continent. as a relativelly recent species they've only recently started exploring and colonizing new places but they can already be found in small number all over Lagr'ünd.

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Same as modern human in general. genetic mutations may produce anything from infrared vision to telepathy or electromagnetic sensitivity.

Civilization and Culture

Naming Traditions

Mostly unchanged from the modern humans. first and lat names are the norms, though sometimes those may be reversed or be given according to the specific subculture.

The city states of the Winterlands, The Feeders of Appolyon, The Sioghai Congregation (add the links later)

Average Technological Level

Steel and other advanced metal working, complex architecture, animal domestication, aggriculture.

Major Language Groups and Dialects

Pannarkian along with all dialects thereof

History

The tales of mankind go back about 2000 years but none of the stories agree on their origin. Time and record keeping are relativelelly new technology, but those records start when they were already firmly settled in the centre of the continent. Around 500 years ago they began towards the outside, building settlements on the best spots found. Upon eventually reaching the coast, some groups took to developping ships and through clever engeneering and sheer luck managed to reach the closest continents. after making contact with more advanced species, humans rapidelly spread throughout the world in a hundred years on the power of alien technologies and foreing relations.
