The Austral Coscivians are a Christian people, denominationally divided among Coscivian Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism, Anglicanism, and Xelphicanism. Their diet is believed to rely upon potatoes as a staple crop. Depictions of Deep South Coscivians dating from the 21120s and earlier suggest that the Deep South Coscivians have some degree of Pelian admixture.

Austral Coscivians are more likely than other Coscivian-Kiravians to bear Latinate forenames. Most such forenames have Christian associations, such as ''Aþanasius'', ''Íoanpetrus'', ''Nicoláus'', and ''Águstin'' for men and ''Varya'', ''Ècaterina'', and ''Viloména'' for women. Many Austral Coscivians have Coscivised surnames with their origins in other languages, indicating Salesian, Pelian, or Leinlandic ancestry. Examples of common Coscivised Salesian names include ''Harínton'' (from ''Harrington'') and ''Vénvrædin'' (from ''Wainwright''). The morphemes ''-haya-'' and ''mani'' usually indicate a Pelian etymology.
Almost all Austral Coscivians have Latinate forenames, most of which are Biblical or hagiographic in oridin. Many Austral Coscivians have Coscivised surnames origins in other languages, indicating Pelian, Urcean, Thrakoslavic, or Leinish ancestry. Examples of common Coscivised Urcean names include ''Haríntyn'' (from ''Harrington'') and ''Kóllyn'' (from ''Collins''). The morphemes ''-haya-'' and ''mani'' usually indicate a Pelian etymology.


Deep South Coscivian surnames commonly end in the suffixes ''-ryn'', ''-syn'', or ''vyn''. While these suffixes are not unique to Deep South Coscivians, they are exceptionally frequent in Sydona.

==Historiography and Political Significance==
The presence of the Deep South Coscivians provides the basis for the [[Kiravian Federacy]]'s territorial claims to the Sydona Islands, and as such, historiographical opinions on the Deep South Coscivians are often politically charged. While most scholars in the Coscivian world maintain that the Deep South Coscivians have been the majority ethnic group in the islands for the better part of two centuries and remain so to the present day, foreign critics, particularly those hailing from nations with conflicting claims in the Sydonas, may go so far as to claim that the Deep South Coscivians are either long-extinct or never existed as anything more than a Kiravian propaganda tool.
The 21200 Kiravian Census counted some 130,000 individuals living in the Federacy who listed their ethnosocial group as "Deep South Coscivian", "Sydonan Coscivian", "Coscivian-Leinlander", or "South Ixnayan Coscivian", though there is some speculation that this census data was fudged by the Kiravian government to legitimate its teritorial claims.


Since the 21205 liberation of the islands and the restoration of Kiravian rule, the reality of the Austral Coscivian majority presence in the island has become more widely accepted.

The Austral Coscivians or Deep South Coscivians (Kiravic: Ravatūrix Koskem, Biþnidéskax Koskem), also known as the Cosco-Sydonans are the dominant ethnic group inhabiting the Sydona Islands in southern Ixnay.

History

Austral Coscivian history begins with the Fourth Crusade, when Crusader forces led by the Elamite Order conquered the islands of Mar-Kśaver and Manētuva and established a Crusader state thereupon.

Distribution

Austral Coscivians inhabit most parts of the Sydona archipelago. They are demographically dominant in many parts of the outer islands, particularly Mar-Kśaver. Austral Coscivians can be found on the main island of Yerduran in varying concentrations, being most numerous in the Destransar hinterlands and in pockets surrounding a few other castellated mediæval cities. They are least numerous in the majority Thrakoslavic nothern areas of Yerduran and the other island whose name escapes me.

Culture

Austral Coscivian culture blends Pelian and pan-Coscivian heritage with influences from other neighbouring peoples of Sydona.

Onomastics

Deep South Coscivians have an inventory of names that reflects the many different cultural influences in Sydona over the centuries.

Almost all Austral Coscivians have Latinate forenames, most of which are Biblical or hagiographic in oridin. Many Austral Coscivians have Coscivised surnames origins in other languages, indicating Pelian, Urcean, Thrakoslavic, or Leinish ancestry. Examples of common Coscivised Urcean names include Haríntyn (from Harrington) and Kóllyn (from Collins). The morphemes -haya- and mani usually indicate a Pelian etymology.

Deep South Coscivian surnames commonly end in the suffixes -ryn, -syn, or vyn. While these suffixes are not unique to Deep South Coscivians, they are exceptionally frequent in Sydona.
