Khazdayet

The Khazdayet (khaf. Lugi Xazdayit), also known as Red Valley Ňursumerians or the Tribes of Khazda are a semi-nomadic Ňursumerian culture and ethnolinguistic group, which has dominated the Hyperborean Highlands and upper Red River Valley for hundreds of years, and since the 7th century OC is spreading southwards, into territories of the former Gheverites, now mostly incorporated into Wersār society and culture.
== Ethnonyms ==
The common endonym Khazdayet (also used in English) refers to the influencial Tribe of Khazda, which first united the many different groups inhabiting the Highlands. This name is derived from the Old Khafeneic word *xazdá, which meant "fire spirit" and was associated with the Great Red Boar, an important symbol in the traditional beliefs of the nomads, the Nershakha. It was first attested in Matai carvings, which documented the plundering of the Holy City of Itlaama Sinqo (khaf. Hlemasig) on the Red Lake's coast, where many [attackers] carried banners made of blood-red fur [...] and acted more like wild boars, which they seem to fear and respect and call "hasataam" - indeed they call [themselves] by that name also. Ultimately, this name originates from the Noellahqem word kaz, meaning "fire", which was borrowed into Proto-Tezeyaric and given the nominal ending for the spiritual class *-tam.
