Tak-Tar-Ren

The Tak-Tar-Ren(translated "Ship People of Ren") are a civilization that "settled" on the southwestern banks of the Oahnes Strait (their settlement and main city, Met'r Ren, isn't a conventional settlement persay, because it basically is a port and meeting place for the trade alliances that divide Tak-Tar-Ren civilization).

Proto-Tar Period
The Proto-Tar were the people whose civilization evolved into the Tak-Tar-Ren. They lived a mostly seafaring life, as they do today. They would live on one-person rafts that drifted through the ocean, with nothing but a simple rope-and-stone anchor, a spear, and a stone knife to help them on the open ocean. They were, like the modern Tak-Tar-Ren, very individualistic, only meeting once a year at the current site of Met'r Ren to discuss new insights gained through meditation out at sea, taking advantage of the serenity of the open ocean to seek wisdom. Like they do today, they only ate every twenty day, only breaking their ritualistic fast in a massive intake of fish and kelp at the end of the cycle.
