The Age of Edos
See Also: Previous Ages

By the Ymraen Calendar, the Age of Edos began in the year 10,000 F.O., following the Age of Raurna. It is in the intervening period that all human history has taken place. The ending of the Age of Edos, as foretold by the Prophet Ymrae, is known as avarfuil (Old Anosian: Day of Rebuilding), which will herald in the Age of Ava.

Prehistory
Generally regarded as the period of time before the invention of writing and the creation of recorded history, little is known of the world's prehistory save for what remains in oral tradition and what has been gleaned from minor archaeology.

It is believed that both mankind and civilization originated somewhere to the south east in the heart of the Ruined Realms and quickly branched out from there. There is, however, some doubt about this due to archaeological evidence of human occupation of Atvas dating back to around 7,500 F.O.

Prehistory ends with the first written records from the ancient kingdom of Hala in 6,620 F.O.
