Trell Wars

The term Trell Wars appeared to be used for multiple conflicts involving the Trell of Seven Cities.
The first involved a war with the human First Empire. It was unclear if the term described only a specific series of events or if it referred to a general state of warfare between the two peoples. Some portion of the war occurred near the end of the First Empire's existence as Dejim Nebrahl's mother was described as a widow of the conflict.The Bonehunters, Prologue, US SFBC p.29 
It was also known that the birth of the First Empire occurred amidst a conflict with the Sar Trell south of Yath-Ghatan. The Sar Trell were defeated with help of future emperor Dessimbelackis.Midnight Tides, Chapter 20, Epigraph It is unclear if this battle was considered part of the Trell Wars.
The second involved the wars of genocide against the Trell conducted by the Nemil.The Bonehunters, Glossary This was a much more recent conflict as Mappo Runt participated in the Battle of Bayen Eckar against the Nemil around two hundred years before the events of the Malazan Book of the Fallen.The Bonehunters, Chapter 14, US SFBC p.477Deadhouse Gates, Chapter 7, US HC p.190-191 - The battle took place before Mappo Runt was chosen to become Icarium's companion by the Nameless Ones. We know that Mappo's service with Icarium has lasted around 200 years.
