Yonata (culture)
Along the southeastern bank of the Kasiryat and in the lowlands of the Darmirat plain live the Yonata. An agrarian people, the Yonata build their towns alongside the many streams and tributaries that flow towards the great river, living in colorful stucco homes decorated in deep oranges and vibrant yellows. The Yonata, being farmers, are tied to the seasons, and no matter the time of year their stucco villages are filled with the sounds of the Sitar and Tabla drums as the Yonata herald the coming of the harvest.
While commonly known as a quaint folk, their position as the breadbasket of the Chordan peoples means Yonatan landowners hold much sway over the politics of Taleshtadendar. They live in some of the most fertile land in all of Kashirya, and before the rise of Valapuiwan, Yonatan kings held dominion over much of the Darmirat plain.
