The Den Age
As I was writing the other article about the Utumi, someone asked me "what is the den age"? This is what the den age is and was:

The Den age is when beings lived on flat ground with little in the way of rocks or even food to be grown near by. Most people think of a den as like a grotto or small cave like depression, no to the culture of the den age a Cave or Cavern is an unholy place called a "Musoili" or a "Musoli". (Muss-oily) They believed spirits lived in those caves and they would make you feel "Lacterin" (Lax tern) which is a perverted and lustful state which was seen as taboo by some non cave dwelling folk. (Not Vampire Related People)

So a den to these people is flat ground. The flatter the ground the more likely they would live on that land.

They had a tendency like with gardening to grow food, and bury things they may need later in the ground.

Unfortunately we do not know much about any ages before the Stone age, which was some 70 million years ago.

The den age was about 300 Million years ago.

They did not have a spirituality or religion, they did not create dolmens or statues.

They wore animal skins, they believed deeply in covering their bodies with cloth.

They were unclean with bad hygiene. They did not mate with men or women.

They were afraid of fire, and they were afraid of storms with thunder and lightning and soaking downpours.

Sometimes, you would see them walking with wild dogs even though they were not pets.

They had short tempers and they attacked one another when pressed to a certain point. They would bite, scream and hit people with their hands and kick with their feet, throw rocks and sometimes sticks. The sticks were sometimes welded like swords and were used to stab people.

They could not swim, and many of them drowned.

They were deeply saddened when Lassa happened -- when someone of their culture died who they held in high regard and the whole clan would just get up and leave and start over some place else down the road from there.

Sometimes they would pit and skewer their meat food and roast over a fire and sometimes they would try and eat something not cooked with fire as they were afraid of it.

Their tribe and culture lasted for about 1500 years. In the end they were just wandering people.
