Tamukh Kingdom

The Tamukh Kingdom covered the period from 2323 AS to 1884 AS or about 439 yrs and is named after the first of five ruling dynasties. The Tamukh Kingdom followed the Surizhah Kingdom (3042 AS to 2323 AS, ~719 yrs) and is considered the beginning of the ultimate decline of ancient Kalaman Civilization. The Tamukh rulers retained Aturoksha as the capital of their power and supported the priests of Atur as part of the state religion. The Tamukh Kingdom is most noted for the legendary War of the Dragonfolk. The Tamukh Kingdom was contemporary with the Kingdom of Thykomos, 2,400 AS to 1774 AS.

The Tamukh Dynasty continued the mixed system of subject and tributary kingdoms where more culturally similar and geographically close kingdoms were subjects and farther outlying kingdoms and princes were made tributaries. The decline of power in the eastern frontier was ongoing and islands of Ithatia made only honorary gifts. The Pallathantic Tribes who settled peacefully, by invasion, and by local piracy, occupied the islands of the middle and eastern Pallathantic Sea over the centuries of 2400 to 1800 AS. These raids and invasions contributed to the instability and collapse of the Tamukh Kingdom.
