History
Palaeolithic
During the Middle Palaeolithic, the first identified archaeological industrial culture of stone tools arose, and existed throughout much of the lowland areas of Vostau. The culture revolved mainly around the use of stone hunting implements - spearheads and pointed stones from this era have been found alongside the skeletons of supposed hunters, as well as some remains of prey that have shown signs of damage from jagged stone implements. A later archaeological culture is identified, characterised by much longer pointed stones, an advancement from the stout implements of the previous culture.
Neolithic
The Neolithic era saw the rise of megalithic cultures within modern-day Vostau, including one of the most widespread archaeological cultures of the region, the Clamprint Culture, known for its use of shells in imprinting and scoring pottery. It is believed that these people would eventually develop into the Elmoric culture group.
Pre-Bronze and Bronze Age civilisation
The final major archaeological culture to develop in Vostau was the ___ culture, which arrived from further afield than Vostau and only arrived into the land late in the Pre-Bronze age in Vostau. This would lead to the rise of a number of vibrant and complex Bronze Age communities within Vostau. Prime among these was the Thafonic civilisation, located around the city of Thafon in the southwest of Vostau. Thafon was notable for its contributions to the Mediargic bronze trade, specifically in the presence of tin reserves in the region. In the northwest of Vostau, the Vestu people group, referenced in later documents, whose language was known to be unrelated to that of Thafon. Finally, in the much drier and more arid east, the Elmoric people resided, likely an ancestoral group of the modern day Elmoric people.
