=== Findings ===
Throughout the exploring of the
there have been roughly 30 rooms discovered so far, around ten of
===== Carvings and Paintings. =====
One of the most important findings have been the paintings and carvings found on many second generation rooms. These were large works of art were meant to provide the long time miners with a distraction from the dark tunnels which they made their living in, as well as a chance for their wealthy contractors to show off to miners and peers alike. The more lavish paintings often meant a better life style and better food choices. The stories depicted within the carvings are thought to be events which happened with the first generation death fights. Some of theses stories depict fights between mortals, giants or a mix between the two.
===== Tools and Weapons =====
Tools which were made for the cramp spacing of the mine often differed from others of its like. For example the pickaxes relied on shorter handles to not hit the low hanging ceilings. Another tool, or weapons, was the dart spear which was used by guards in the first generation. This was a light weight spear made to have the point replaced. Around and beneath the point spikes were used to stop miners from grabbing it. The changeable point allowed for guards to endlessly attack the miners even if trapped in the back rooms which they stayed.
===== Other Art =====
The only other art really found in theses rooms were the simple pottery sketches. Theses would showcase mundane acts such as mining, carrying items, farming, walking, fishing ect or religious works. Religious works such as the painted symbols could be found in rooms to be prayed at or all across items during the first generation with it being found less later on.
=== Historical Culture ===
The culture, ways of life and events of the old society are a widely unknown mystery. Through historical artifacts and inferences historians and intellectuals have been able to piece together much of the basic life and hierarchy. This history is divided into two "generations", each further containing separate lifestyles, hierarchy and cultures. The generations are not actual generations but different periods of time.
