Tribes of Arcturian Islanders traveled from mainland Arcturia into the Sokalan peninsula, establishing settlements in the southernmost part of the peninsula. Cave paintings dating back to the 3rd millennium BCE were found in Santa Rosa and Santa Monica. These paintings portrayed several rough drawings of what seems to be ancient Islander natives hunting down deers using spears. Islander native settlements have also been found across the Sokalan archipelago with some even dating back to 4th millennium BCE. |

From what can be observed, the early settlers were primarily a hunter-gatherer society. They would tend to live within groups of 5-7 people with most being men. In the 2nd millennium BCE, several Islander tribes begun farming root plants and fruits. This development rapidly pushed most Islanders to live in flat and exposed areas leading to frequent conflicts between Islander tribes. Sharpened bones were used as weapons and tools during what would be called the Age of Buto. In the late 2nd millennium BCE, Islanders regressed back to hunter-gathering due to conflicts leading to most tribes losing most of their men. This event would be called the Age of Despair. Islanders, however, discovered fishing and using fire as a weapon. Preserved charred remains of a man were found in a cave in Hasting's tallest mountain, Jouthunburg. |
