Hamaxindi (culture)
The Hamaxindi have pre-Amsari roots, their terraced towns and fortresses having graced the high slopes of the Neuoelsa River valley for thousands of years, predating the Prophet and the Hiklahn. Centuries of coexistence and interchange has led to Hamaxindi culture to become largely homogenized within the Amsari milleu and is now distinctive only in that it maintains a handful of unique festivals and costumery quirks.
One piece of fame they have achieved in more recent times however has emerged from the prose work of Hamaxindi poets, a reputation developed in various courts and literary circles throughout the Hiklahn. This preeminence is held in serious contention with the Hixartii, and famous rivalries between Hixartii and Hamaxindi authors have been a mainstay of Amsari literary history for centuries.
