The **Catalogue of the Races in Rathnir and Eldham** is a compendium originally written by Akko Soleth. A primary text that has been lauded for it's research delving into cultures previously undocumented and for its usefulness in racial and cultural historiography across both lands of Eldham and Rathnir, it was initially published in 110 TE.

After 151 years of maintaining the sole authorship of the compendium, new editions of Soleth's work accepted additions of other scholars in 261 TE. Since then, Dorado Äþyrn, Bitter-RootBoy, John Carono Crip0rCrip0r, Goveon, Kjefpiweubfiwpebfiw and Poombooo have contributed to the compendium with Soleth acting as editor.
