Human history in Sabnaki can be traced back to the earliest archaeological evidence of human arrival in [[Cusinaut]] from [[Alshar]], with rudimentary fishing implements found from about 20,000 BC. | Human history in Sabnaki can be traced back to the earliest archaeological evidence of human arrival in [[Cusinaut]] from [[Alshar]], with rudimentary fishing implements found from about 20,000 BC. | ||
Modern Sabnaki developed a semi-urban society by around the year 750 BC, with inland agriculture and extensive fishing allowing the growth of an urban corridor along the modern west coast of the country. These population centers did not develop into a fully urban society until well into the 3rd century AD, and for the time the people there largely erected large temporary settlements and migrated within small territories based on whether or not the fish supply in the area was exhausted. Regardless, most of these groups developed into major tribal polities, vying for control of better fishing territories as well as access to important rivers that gave easy access to the rudimentary inland agriculture. The highlands of modern inland Sabnaki were largely dominated by migratory hunter-gatherer tribes rather than agricultural settlers, though these groups appear to have been deeply integrated within the proto-Sabnak trade economy and appear to share largely the same {{wp|material culture}}. | Modern Sabnaki developed a semi-urban society by around the year 750 BC, with inland agriculture and extensive fishing allowing the growth of an urban corridor along the modern west coast of the country.

By the year 100 BC, most of these various groups had consolidated into 10-12 semi-urban coastal groups with various associated inland farming villages and a rotating number of internal hunter-gatherer tribes, ranging from about 20 in 200 BC to 45 in 100 AD. | ||
