Introduction

Who were the first [Sozians]? The story about the first Sozians goes back for many millenia. Between 5000 and 3500 BC various of peoples have invaded the island we now know as a part of Sozy. They came from the mainland, the Sozian island was a peninsula by then. There was a continuity of groups of different people that settled on the island, rich in natural recourses, flora and fauna.

Before the Vrancian Dynasty, there was no such thing as a united country. The Vrancians were the first to centralise vast parts of it. The empire included many people speaking different languages, looked differently and lived differently. And the Vrancians are nowadays not ethnically considered the be Sozians, not even closely related.

Biologically, the differences between the peoples of Sozy is still quite noticeable. But likely became more vague over the centuries, millenia. It is better to say there is no such thing as first Sozians, rather many groups of peoples that have formed their identity.

First human

The first human archeologists found on the island is that of a 26-year-old man. Experts believe this man, was a hunter-gatherer of a small settlement and one of the first people in Sozy. He was named after our country: Sozéêkläum (character). His well intact body (notice: he died in 5532 BC) shows injuries of a great Wulfra.

Sozéêkläum died of a fight with a great Wulfra


What does this tell us? This and more evidence makes it much easier to learn more about a society thousands of years ago.A society in which -to a point- the Sozian society started to be shaped

An archaic Society

The first people in Sozy were survivers members of a tribe, there was no national identity or anything more important than supplying food for the tribe. There are no reports of wars, struggle for land in such a vast food rich forest area was not needed. And the forest supplied plenty, settlements were always build close to (or inside) the forest. Wulfra was a famous diet. The settlements were small, probably no more than a continues population of 25 to 60 members.

A house was occupied by an entire family.


Everyone would have had their responsibilities and duties, most of them would have been hunters and gatherers, and later farmers. some historians claim that the tribes were ruled by means by of a direct Democracy however some of this is confirmed by ancient writings, we must not generalise over many tribes, some not even related to the other.

Most people were hunter-gatherers.


Certainly, more studies give (and have given) interesting results. Recently pottery was found with writings believed to describe a strategic hunting on a Wulfra pack. This shows there exist a complext language, certainly a contribution to the linguistic study of the languages spoken in Sozy. Studying these peoples is important for the [historical awareness ] of all who live in Sozy.
