The Kalaman Interregnal Period covered the period of 1884 AS to 1729 AS (ca 155 yrs) during which there was no Great King. This period precedes the Jatha-Nebir Kingdom which was the last great kingdom of Kalama. The period began with the fall of the Sinaskha-Pramu Dynasty which brought about the fall of the Tamukh Kingdom. In Kalaman history, a 'kingdom' in this context refers to a succession of dynasties typically ruling from a common capital city. In the time of the Kalaman Interregnal Period, numerous local princes and high priests held dominion over countless city-states and principalities. Despite the lack of a strong central authority, the Kalaman Interregnal Period was a time of rich cultural and material development and established the foundation for the Jatha-Nebir Kingdom that followed.

The ongoing migration of Pallathantic Tribes through the islands of the Pallathantic Sea as well as continued attempted invasions from migrating Eloarian tribesmen threatened Kalaman civilization.
