Alternate name for Anrel., which flourished during the Celadon Epochplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigCeladon Epoch

Name for the period of history c.6200-3000 BME, also called the Age of Miyarris, after the foremost civilisation of that era., approximately 3000-4000 BMEplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigBME (Before Modern Epoch)

Used to date years Before the Modern Epoch.. The civilisation is named for its elaborate underground temples with tactile features, suggesting they were used in darkness. It is unclear whether the Giftdark culture was a widespread belief or part of elite spiritual practice. Little is known other than the remains of its distinctive temple architecture, which uses alternating spaces of darkness and light, presumably for ritual purposes.

Giftdark temples were laid out on an east-west axis. The entrance was always to the west with a public courtyard. East was an open colonnade or peristyle, leading to a succession of smaller, darker rooms until the smallest eastern sanctum, thought to have been completely dark. Temples were aligned so that at certain days of the year, the rising westerly sun would be visible through all rooms, illuminating the dark of the sanctum.

The smallest and most rudimentary temples have three chambers, often built underground in a hillside or barrow. The grandest known examples had nine chambers, with intermediates having five or seven, always odd numbers. The significance of these numbers and the precise use of the rooms is unknown.

Giftdark temples use stone construction with precise and sophisticated geometric designs incised into the stone at waist height and on the floor. They are otherwise unadorned, with no naturalistic carvings or inscription.

The name “Giftdark” was devised by scholars of the Rasian Academyplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigRasian Academy

The Rasian Academy is the common name for the Grand Academy of Rasia, the greatest institution of magic and learning in the Anrel Isles., who discovered and excavated the few remaining temples sites in the Anrel Islesplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigAnrel Isles
