history of HAIQIN | part I: pre-founding era
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
date: september 28, 2024
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pre-Founding Era (~1400s-1500s): Native and Greek Influence
Origin Story:
Migration and Early Settlement:
The indigenous peoples of Haiqin, known as the Akinai, had rich traditions of oral history and were skilled in various crafts, including pottery and weaving. When the Greek travelers arrived, they brought with them their own customs, stories, and artistic expressions, which intertwined with Akinai traditions.
Initial encounters were marked by curiosity and mutual respect. The Akinai were intrigued by the Greeks' advanced navigation techniques and metalworking skills, while the Greeks admired the Akinai's deep connection to the land and their ecological knowledge.
Initial contacts were marked by trade and curiosity rather than conflict, as both groups sought to understand one another’s way of life.
Cultural Exchange:
Spiritual Synthesis:
The merging of Greek deities with Akinai spirits led to a unique pantheon. For example, Zephyra, the Greek goddess of the wind, was associated with Naji, the Akinai spirit of storms, creating a duality in weather rituals that honored both traditions.
Festivals celebrated this synthesis, where rituals involved both Greek-style processions and native dances, showcasing the harmonious blending of traditions.
Religious Syncretism:
The merging of Greek mythology with indigenous spiritual beliefs led to the creation of new deities, often depicted as hybrid figures. For instance, a goddess representing agriculture might have attributes of Demeter combined with local nature spirits, leading to festivals that celebrated both harvests and nature's cycles.
Architectural Innovations:
Settlements featured a mix of Greek and indigenous architecture. Greek columns adorned communal gathering spaces, while traditional Akinai structures utilized local materials and designs that respected the natural environment.
This architectural fusion became a symbol of unity, leading to the construction of The Great Plaza of Vasilika, a central meeting point that facilitated trade and cultural exchange.
Artistic expression flourished as the two cultures mingled; pottery, textiles, and tools began to showcase elements from both Greek and native designs, symbolizing their cooperative spirit.
Greek architectural styles influenced indigenous housing, with stone and clay materials forming unique structures that featured columns and open courtyards. Indigenous designs included natural elements like wood and thatch, creating a blend of aesthetic beauty and functionality.
Coexistence:
Technological Collaboration:
The Greeks introduced agricultural techniques such as irrigation and crop rotation, which the Akinai adapted to enhance local farming practices. The combination of Greek crops like olives and Akinai staples like maize created a diverse agricultural economy.
Seasonal fairs began to emerge, where both cultures exchanged goods, knowledge, and stories, fostering deeper relationships.
Shared festivals and rituals became commonplace, celebrating seasonal changes and harvests. Ceremonies began to feature a mix of Greek deities and local spirits, reflecting the spiritual blending of the two cultures.
Intermarriage between Greeks and indigenous peoples created a new demographic that combined both heritages, further solidifying bonds between the groups.
Language and Communication:
As Greeks settled, a pidgin language developed, mixing Greek and local dialects. This became the foundation for the future Haiqin language, emphasizing shared vocabulary related to agriculture, trade, and spiritual concepts.
Political Organization:
Formation of Councils:
Inspired by Greek democratic principles, councils were established, consisting of both Greek settlers and Akinai chiefs. These councils focused on issues like land use, trade agreements, and conflict resolution.
The Council of Elders (may change the name idk yet) emerged as a prominent body that balanced both cultures' interests, ensuring decisions reflected the values of both communities.
The leader, Sulien, inspired by the ideals of democracy and unity, established a formal constitution that incorporated elements from both Greek and native governance, allowing for representation of all tribes.
This constitution laid the groundwork for a council that included both noble families and tribal chiefs, promoting cooperation and shared power.

PLEASE explain carpentry and woodworking im curious to hear about it from someone who actually works in it
GLADLY.
Long post ahead
Ok, first I feel like I should probably explain the differences in woodworking vs carpentry.
First up, Carpentry!
Carpentry is possibly one of the oldest trade jobs in our world. After all, wood is one of the oldest and most frequently used building materials in history. Carpentry has existed ever since the first wooden house was built. It is concerned with primarily wood construction. That means dealing with building houses, creating floor plans, installing roofing, ect. It also deals with building bridges, offices, ect ect.
There's a lot of mathematics that go into Carpentry. A good carpenter should be able to accurately take measurements and build the right about of supplies to install them.
An example would be when you're flooring a house, a carpenter will take dimensions of your house and use that to figure out how much wood you'll need to install the floors.
It requires precise dimensions to find the number of materials you'll need and how to best utilize them. This takes alot of mathematical prowess, dexterity, and ingenuity. Making errors could be catastrophic, especially if you're working on vital projects like bridges.
There is no room for error when it comes to carpentry. An error could mean the entire bridge falls apart! Carpentry works mostly with construction work, and, once mixed with crafts like masonry and metalworking, to create great structures.
Quick summary
- Involves shaping wood into materials that are meant to go towards construction work
- Properly calculating the amount of wooden material needed to complete a project
- Carefully following blueprints to build houses, rooms, bridges, and more
- Inspecting damaged wooden structures and buy the ones who have the resources and expertise to fix them
- The projects associated with carpentry include flooring, walls, windows, doors, insulation, and more.
Woodworking
Woodworking might be as old as carpentry. Possibly even older! The craft has existed since mankind created its first wooden objects. It was often associated with holiness for a completely different reason from carpentry.
Ancient civilizations would transform pieces of wood into idols for worship. As such, it was a commendable art even back in the day. However, with the help of modern technology, the field of woodworking has taken completely new heights.
While basic mathematics is still important when it comes to woodworking, it's nowhere near as vital as it is in carpentry. Instead, it focuses on a completely different kind of expertise. The use of machines.
A good modern woodworker is versed in the use of a plethora of machinery, whether it be shapers, routers, ect. There are a ton of machines that assist in woodworking.
Without the use of machinery, it would be impossible to create such intricate designs. Besides, it takes a lot of time, effort, and a huge degree of creativity. Yes, while math skills are still important, most priority shifts over to the artisans creativity. The more creative you are, the more impressive crafts you can make.
Essentially, woodworking is a craft that transformation wood to create products like cabinets, shelves, panels, beds, ect. Emphasis is placed on the design. There is practically no limit to the things woodworking can produce. As a result, different types exist which specialize in different methods of the craft.
Types of Woodworking.
- Carving : Involves carving the wood into a variety of creations with specialized knives or other tools.
- Furniture making : It's in the name. In this specialization, you take wood and transform it into the variety of different furniture. Including chairs, tables, beds, cabinets, ect.
- Turning : There are a plethora of gorgeous designs you can come up with by using a lathe. That is exactly what a turning involves.
- Luthing : You probably noticed most classical musical instruments are made of wood. Luthing is responsible for that. It's what creates and repairs the wooden instruments.
A quick summary
- The focus lies on artistry and creativity to form new objects
- Woodworking creates a plethora of products such as cabinets, shelves, tables, chairs, wooden showpiece, instruments, and more.
- There's extensive knowledge needed when it comes to operating a variety of woodworking machinery.
- Operations aren't enough, maintenance knowledge is equally as vital
- It usually takes place within a factory of a workshop
- Sanding and finishing projects is an essential part of woodworking.
Conclusion
At its core, woodworking is an art that creates products, while carpentry is normally construction work.

A Primer on the Stone Age Technology of Flint Knapping
Flint knapping is an ancient craft that involves creating stone arrowheads and projectiles. The projectiles served as essential weapons for hunting, warfare, and survival.
The technique involves precisely removing the thin layers of stone to shape and sharpen it into a functional tool. Humans have passed down the meticulous process through generations since the Stone Age. Some believe that various cultures developed independent techniques worldwide. Archaeologists suggest that the skill did not originate in a single area and then spread. Instead, diverse cultures learned and applied it separately.
Archeological evidence points to the use of rock and stone as materials for the earliest tools millions of years ago; the oldest stone dates back more than 60,000 years. In North America, some recovered spearheads date back at least 15,000 years. Before cultures adopted metallurgical techniques or in societies that didn't develop metalworking, flint knapping served as the predominant method for fashioning tools and weapons. Excavations have unearthed numerous flint-knapped stone artifacts, showing that it's easier to distinguish flint-knapped stones such as arrowheads than those from natural rocks.
The stone used for flint knapping mattered since every type did not provide a suitable fit, and some became common. Alongside flint, obsidian was a popular choice, as were quartz, chert, jasper, and chalcedony. The stones possess characteristics ideal for crafting tools and weapons and the necessary durability to withstand the demands of hunting and battles. While dense and hard, the rocks have the unique quality of fracturing in a clamshell or rounded conchoidal pattern, unlike other stones that break in linear or jagged manners when struck. The precision in fracture patterns gave early humans control over shaping the stones.
The predictable fracture patterns observed in flint, obsidian, and similar rocks made them particularly suitable for toolmaking using flint knapping techniques. Ancient humans likely learned through observation during natural events like landslides or earthquakes and through experimentation by striking rocks.
Accomplished flint knappers relied on hard and soft hammers to craft stone tools. Rocks such as granite, basalt, quartz, or other metamorphic and igneous material harder than flint would serve as a hard hammer. For more intricate work, flint knappers utilized soft hammers made from materials other than rock, such as bone, antlers, or sturdy wood. Depending on the intended tool or weapon, a flint knapper might need to refine a sharp edge before removing a flake to avoid chipping off too large a piece. To accomplish this, they would employ another stone, such as limestone or sandstone, to smooth the flint, like a woodworker uses sandpaper.
Flint knapping methods differed based on the task, cultural practices, the artisan's style, and materials. The process started by identifying a suitable stone, a core, which required altering into a flatter object resembling the intended final product. Initially, a hard hammer helped chip off parts of the original rock, gradually shaping the core, requiring precision over brute force. The knapper had to strategically hit the core's edge with the hard hammer to remove flakes.
Holding the core in one hand and the hard hammer in the other, the knapper meticulously struck the core to shape it from different sides and angles. After achieving the rough, the knapper shifted to a soft hammer, employing indirect percussion flaking for refinement. The knapper flaked off thin, clamshell-shaped layers by applying pressure to the chipped edge. Every strike to the core reduced its size, shaping it into a knife, hatchet, arrowhead, or digging tool.
Several ancient civilizations discovered that heating stones facilitated knapping. Gradually heating stones over a fire altered their texture, smoothing the surface and making them less grainy. Burying the heated rocks in hot sand transformed the composition and texture, creating smaller, sharper flakes for crafting more efficient tools and weapons.

A quick and dirty worldbuilding drabble for a blades in the dark game
The entire world is governed by the Tetrapolar Union. There is no lever of power, be it economic or technological that they don not have their hands on. Where their constituents might have once been rapacious empires gorging themselves on resources and labor, the Union slowly chokes the life out of the world to feed itself. Below are the four poles that comprise the Union The Serene Thalassocracy of Velata- Oldest, strongest city-state, founder of the Tetrapolar Union. The economic and military beating heart of the Union. Heavily aristocratic, with ship captains and admirals as nobles and royalty. Their culture venerates the ideal of the masculine sailor, rugged and unflappable, men and women alike are expected to live up to this ideal. Velata has largely transitioned from an industrial economy to a service one, the delicate work of creating magitech along with all of the most prestigious magical academies reside here, their students all becoming part of the Apparati dela Mare, the state magician corp. All its people grow fat on the implicit imperialism of the Union. The Industrialist Republic of Prydain - Similarly aged and venerable as their Veletese counterparts, the Prydains have focused instead on metalwork and resource extraction. In the past Prydain was an empire to rival Velata, and had once warred with them but recently have found cooperation and compact to be the more profitable path. Immense foundries and mills crowd Prydain cities, filling it with them stink of work. Prydain is also well known for their industrial automata, largely totally obedient and capable of feats of immense strength and durability. Few outside of the magnates are aware of their inner workings. Ruled by captains of industry which while elected by the people, do little for their sake.
The Pharusian Futurist State - Founded by a group of scientists, engineers, poets, and theorists from all across the world for the sake of advancement no matter the cost. Work involving everything from development magitechnical flying automata to the biological analysis of paranormal entities is conducted here. They are infamous for their various failed experiments and accidents. Most famous of these is Pharusia itself, a massive aerostatic city that hovers over the ocean. The Futurist State provides economic security for its people so progress can be achieved free from distraction, but imposes no moral or ethical restrictions on their research. The Shinano Federated Republic - A relatively new inductee into the Tetrapolar Union, Shinano was once a military stratocracy that was overthrown by the Unitary Communist movement , headed by the now legendary Ariane Sun-Kowler known among the communists as 'Mother Revolution'. However, the social democratic and moderate wing of the revolution had betrayed the communists and purged them before aligning the newborn Republic with the Union. While less dictatorial than many of their counterparts, power and wealth remains distant from the average person. Discontent with the moderates and incrementalists burns, and while the UniComms may have failed here, they have spread far and wide throughout the Union.

At the end of that I went
Wooooow
And it reminded me of discussions I've been having about ancient Egypt and the Ancient Lost High Technology people (ALHT). These are the folks who insist that the Egyptians of the dynastic era -- aka the people of recorded/known history going back to the guy Egyptologists call the "First Pharaoh", Narmer -- did not build or create the megalithic monuments nor some of the objects mostly found in tombs because those monuments and objects show such precision and are made of such hard materials that they couldn't have been made with simple copper chisels and such.
When I was first introduced to this idea, I gave some credence to it. Though I must note that I did not and have never signed onto the idea that the "lost civilization" that allegedly created them was Atlantean or some lost white civilization as most of these people do. I grokked the racism in that immediately, but did not grok the other things wrong with the idea.
To be clear: Atlantis wasn't real, Lemuria isn't a thing, and Mu is right out. I do think there were earlier, advanced in ways our current archaeological paradigm doesn't accept, human-esque civilizations. And, if that's true, they were indigenous civilizations. They weren't influenced by aliens from Sirius or the Pleiades or the Galactic Federation. In the case of whatever went on in Egypt and the rest of North Africa, those peoples were African. Black People in today's way of labeling.
Moving on. I recently found out that one of the pieces of "evidence" the LAHT people give for why dynastic Egyptians couldn't have made these monuments or objects that have such precision and are made from super hard materials is that "it would have taken them too long" and thus no one would have done it.
Yes, I'm serious.
I knew that "evidence" was bunk when I heard it, and videos like the one above are the reason why. There are artisans today that create pigments, objects, decoration, metalwork, younameit, that involve multi-step, labor-intensive processes. Many processes that go back multi-thousands of years. The artisans that do this create things that are very expensive (and I hope they are highly paid for it!) in our time. In times past, artisans would do this work for the people in their society who could afford to "pay" them appropriately for it. Often: royalty.
I put pay in quotes because sometimes it wasn't a wage or direct exchange of money for goods. Those artisans had housing and food and clothing and other necessities provided by society (in some cases what we would call The State) because their job was to do the artisaning for the benefit of The State or Society. In ancient Egypt, that did not only mean the Pharaohs or the aristocracy.
They would not have had a sense of creating or crafting "taking too long" because it took as long as it took. Over time they came up with more efficient ways to do some things, of course. But they didn't have to worry about pumping things out at some fast pace just to get it out the door, like it was a sweatshop or a factory with terrible conditions and a quota. Obviously, things that took longer to make had a high value. But it's a different prospect when you understand not every person was being exploited for it. (Though I'm sure there has been exploitation going back as far as humanity.)
The fact that the LAHT people have no cognizance of a world with values that aren't post-industrial society or informed by capitalism is just one of their many problems.
It also shows a deep lack of curiosity about and understanding of how intelligent and resourceful people in ancient times and even prehistoric times were. One of the reasons I bought the whole "couldn't have been done with copper chisels" thing is because my concept of copper is modern and limited. I used to think of copper as kinda soft and pliable, so it made sense. This was before I understand the tiniest bit of metallurgy and someone explained how the ancients made basic copper much harder and thus more able to do the kind of chiseling they needed it to do.
It was also before I understood the roots of alchemy, which aren't woo woo magical. Alchemy is the materials science the ancient Egyptians developed over centuries so that they could more easily work with the stones and metals available in their area. And if they produced things so precise that it seems to some that only a modern process could have created them, it's not because the "lost technology" is something akin to our modern technology or alien technology. They had the time, they had the mandate, they had the support of their society, and they had hundreds, then thousands of years of knowledge passed down to them on how to do it.
Side Note: I've seen it theorized (and I agree) that these artisans were what we today would call neurodiverse. Hyperfixation is a great trait to have when you're doing this kind of work.
It's so important for people in general to know a bit about this so they don't fall into the nonsense the LAHT people are peddling, even just a little, as I did. Pushing back against nonsense is good in and of itself. There's also the part where I have an even greater appreciation of the skill and knowledge and innovation of our ancient ancestors. The idea that we, today, are so much more evolved and smart is ridiculous. We wouldn't have survived as a species without their skill and knowledge and the science they created. We would be so much poorer in spirit as a species without the beautiful, magnificent, meticulously crafted monuments and objects and clothing and jewelry those artisans were free to spend all that time on.
We still need that, as a species. So:
Pay artists. Support artists. Overpay artists.
Give us the ability to not have to worry every second about the rent and the bills and if we're going to be able to eat.
Honestly, no one ever should have to worry about that. But it does feel like artists and artisans are always treated as if we especially don't deserve it.
Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk.
