A tribe or group of closely related tribes dwelling in central Weshif Desert as late as the fifth millennium before Salmakhamer. They were sometimes friendly with the Shelekhumbians. The first waves of the Thammazite tribes pushed them further north into the core territory of the Shelekhumbians who settled them in what is now called Yephalah.

Many of the Esbdalite people migrated in the late Fifth Millennium (ca 4300 AS to 4000 AS) into southern Kalama (Kshandiguha) and adopted Kalaman culture during the Gahashpujani Kingdom (ca 4300 AS to 3725 AS). They were enlisted as mercenaries early on to fight against the Adamantine Giants.

Esabdalite Language

Little is known of the Esabdalite Language as few records of it survive to modern times, mostly in the form of funerary reliefs as the Drasa Dynasty, the one Esabdalite Dynasty, conducted all governmental and official business in the Kalaman Language and it is likely that by this time, all high-ranking persons of Esabdalite spoke the native language fluently and may have even forgotten their ethnic tongue.

Scholars believe the Esabdalite Language was distantly related to the Thammazite Language or had borrowed from it. Esabdalite also has traces of the Shelekhumbi Language. Otherwise, it is believed to have been a language isolate.
