The ancient history of the archipelago, which is today Porta Bianca, is not very well known. Unlike other indigenous cultures of the occident which may have left behind archaeological and physical evidence of their societies, very few artifacts and little evidence remains of Porta Bianca's indigenous population. Scarce archaeological findings and early Cartadanian accounts from the colonial era constitute much of what is known about them. Early Cartadanians did co-exist and even intermixing with the indigenous, preserving their culture down many generations. This exists solely in biolgical heritage, as the society of these indigenous peoples collapsed not long after Cartadanian arrival.
