Žötó-Žimiara
The Žötó-Žimiara were at least nineteen highly influential figures in the Arfarotï period who drastically altered Ïlýrhonidian culture, most notably the religion and artstyle, by way of noval methods, materials, and ideas. Although their work was the cornerstone of the golden age (the Ýmor-Šapariž and Ýmor-Šïwëðo), it simultaneously ushered in the downfall of the Ïlýrhonid Tribe, as the newfound pride in the family unit independent of the entire tribe, and the controversy following the death of Örzüýŋ, tore the community apart and alienated each family from each other and from the central government.
Nomenclature
Unlike their names in the individual pages, the names here are adorned with an 'O' prefix, or some local variant, which elevates their personas to that of cities, as seen in other terms like Óm-hayïd (City of Hayïd) and Öšdúu (City-State). Much like the tendency of early Ibrófeneðian tradition to facilitate unity and pride through the collective, these prefixes render these figures as being so prolific that they parallel entire cities in their knowledge. Similarly, these prefixes raise them to the authority of city leaders, reflecting the pride their existence has inspired in the family unit.
List of Žötó-Žimiara
Ýlëntuk Family:
The Žötó-Žimiara of the Ýlëntuk Family were among the most influential of all Žötó-Žimiara, and both of their contributions spread across the entire tribe. Crucially, this gave the Family an immense source of leverage; by the time of their departure in 25020 AYM, the entire tribe's source of food, construction material, and cultural identity was at least partially derived from the various systems and styles originating from the Ýlëntuk Family. Thus, any struggles felt by the Family would be felt by the rest of the tribe; the departure of the Family especially caused immense shockwaves throughout the Tribe, and would render the idea of departure much more in consideraton for all other families than if the Ýlëntuk Family did not have much influence.
Orašamóš
Main Article: Ašamóš
An immensely influential figure, Ašamóš excelled in creating small-scale structures using debris and rubble. These structures were meant as artistic sculptures in which each piece relied on each other for stability, resulting in sculptures that proved extremely earthquake-resistant. From 25060 to his death in 25035 AYM, Ašamóš built over 80 sculptures in this so-called Ótaš-Ašamóš style, including 15 large-scale houses. This would spread through to other families, and by the time of his death, over 2,000 structures in the Ótaš-Ašamóš across the entire tribe.
Ožaðolý
Main Article: Žaðolý
Žaðolý was one of the first members of the Žötó-Žimiara. Emerging very early on, he planned the road-and-pit system that would dominate the landscape of the Ýlëntuk Family's tribal lands in 25113 AYM, but it would take another 4 years until the designs were finalized and construction began. These road-and-pit systems comprised a series of 50-75 centimeter-deep troughs that would direct large boulders from their impact locations to designated pits around 1-2 meters deep. From there, they would be transported to other families' lands and harvested as food/construction material. His innovations coincided in time with the first period of increase natural disasters, allowing the Ýlëntuk Family to weather the circumstances exceedingly well.
