Archeological evidence suggests that humans first settled permanently on the islands of modern [[Port de Vent]] and the Krasoa Islands around 4200 BCE. The Sundaic, [[Glaistic_civilization#Tribes|Alitros sea people of the Glaistic civilization]], established their first settlements along the coast, carving rudimentary dwellings into the cliffs. Their lives revolved around fishing, hunting, and navigating the treacherous currents of the archipelago's straits. | |||
However, around 1100 BCE, Sundaic legends speak of encountering the ''Sky People'', beings of immense stature who arrived in colossal vessels and possessed advanced knowledge, likely [[Glaistic_civilization#Tribes|Eudetos tribes of the Glaistic civilization]]. They built structures of massive stone blocks that defied explanation as the verbal histories of the . The Sundaic, initially wary, eventually formed a tentative connection. The Sky People may have shared some of their knowledge, influencing the island's intricate water channels and the unique architectural style of some Sundaic structures, incorporating megaliths. The islands that make up [[Port de Vent]] and the Krasoa Islands became an unique element of positive interface between these ancient [[Glaistic civilization|Glaistic]] cultures, who in most other places were in conflict with the [[Glaistic_civilization#Tribes|Eudetos]] managing to take advantage of the naivete of the [[Glaistic_civilization#Tribes|Alitros]] to expand their wealth. Evidence suggests that [[Glaistic_civilization#Glaistic_masks|Glaistic masks]], with their enigmatic smiles and intricate details, may have been incorporated into Sundaic rituals, later evolving into symbols of power and leadership. | |||
Around 600 BCE, Sundaic legends speak of a devastating tsunami that impacted the [[Catenias]] archipelago. The [[Glaistic_civilization#Tribes|Eudetos]] outposts across the region, including those on Port de Vent, were abandoned or destroyed. The ''Sky People'' vanished from the Sundaic historical record, but DNA evidence shows a pattern of intertribal breeding that pre-supposes that the Sky People didn't disappear as much as they ceased to be unique and were more than likely just merged into the existing Sundaic identity. After the disaster, competition for limited resources, competition for fertile land, and fishing grounds grew between different Sundaic settlements, led to the rise of chiefdoms vying for dominance. 600-200 BCE was marked by terrible inter-tribal violence and the development of {{wp|cannabalism}}, slavery, and {{wp|head-hunting}} as key aspects of Sundaic power structures and society. | |||
