Solid application. Could you expand on what the knowledge of ancient cultures means? And your Author’s bio could use some fleshing out.

Hmm okay. This is broadly in order - but we are looking for modern biographies and such, not tales of their new lives in the Neolithic as such.

I must say that I am not entirely confident about our two newcomers’ ability to write.

Well, we do have a long and storied tradition of taking on newer writers.

He opened his eyes...Slowly his eyes Adjusted to focus. He saw the sight of a few Citizens of Crete.
"who are you" They asked watching him with awe.
"i am Matthew?" he said slowly and thoroughly
One Soldier Bustled through the Ever increasing crowd and went directly to him, watching cautiously as he anticipated Matthews every move.
he turned to a War-surgeon that had got through the clearing and whispered some Peloponnese words to the who Mathew would know later as the Cypriot Doctor.
he bent over over the sprawled body as Mathew watched with a glare.
"What in The name of Minoa!" the Surgeon said very quietly so he could barely discern the words.
he regained His upright stance and told the soldier
"hes not got a scatch....How did he survive the sea, Wouldn't the Sharp Rocks have got him?
"what if he is the son of Minoa" He said
"Don't be silly the god of the sea would not send his son to here!"
"Should we take Him to the slave state Peloponesia"
"no need.... we need to take him to The King of Crete"
"You Sure"
"Sure if this is the son of Minoa he might have a message for our king"
Matthew regained his stance and looked around awkwardly.
Everyone gaped at him for his unusal for the era Aqua-Marine clothing
" excuse me where am i?" he said

Before you begin with your story, please bear in mind that the current year is 2980 B.C. - and a lot of what we commonly associate with the history of Greece and Crete has yet to happen yet. The current culture of the region would be Cycladic, the Minoan civilization not rising for another 280 years. Things like the Hellenistic pantheon, monarchy, and even traditional names do not exist yet. You do, however, exist in one of the more developed parts of the world, Crete having entered into the bronze age some 200 years ago. For you, this means that you will be dealing with a developed settlements, professional classes of warriors and laborers, organized religion, and an entrenched aristocracy - a pre-set system which you will have to operate within. I would suggest you do some reading up on the current history of your region of the world, and getting an idea for how you want your story to proceed before going on.

It should be noted to, as per rule 5, you arrive completely naked; and though you didn't break any rule here, I would refer you to rule 6 ( these people are not dumb ): Finding a naked guy somewhere in the wild would not on it's own merit any kind of special response - let alone, Let's bring him to our king because he might be a god! Nudity was pretty common during this time in history, as were crazy people just wandering around on their own. I would just say for you to start planning your story long in advance of execution.

Hey Nux, are in the Near East, Western Africa, or in India per chance?

[Joohan]

Hey Nux, are in the Near East, Western Africa, or in India per chance?

He said that his trade network only extended along the Gangic river valley

[Nuxipal]

Hey Nux, are in the Near East, Western Africa, or in India per chance?

Local trade is along the Gangetic Plain. Contact with the greater Indus-Ganges system. Trade down from the Tibetan plateau in the form of metals for food stuffs.

Patna is in the Bihar region of India, so it's pretty damn far from the Mediterranean/Mesopotamia/European shenanigans.

Cool, then first contact between Sumer, Indus and them to establish a pan Indian trade network for wealth and prosperity. Plus it can set up the local tribes to be used for resource harvesting and religious conversion further down the road a decade and some change from now.

Not actually as I had been helping with the trade expansion via the Indus civ. So there are some contact with the greater Ganges system but only through scouts. I do intend to scout and maybe contact further as some sort of side project as my attention is pointed eastward between the civil war and the unification of Iraq, Elam, Dilmun and Mesopotamia itself.

Finally managed to get some writing up Joohan. Apologies for the immense delay.

Yeah, I'm not gonna stop you from scouting or making contact as its technically possible. Though quite impractical. Obviously, would welcome your scouts to show up and stay for a few years and put in some work, but yeah. I don't expect any sort of major trade as it'd be difficult to transport too much between the Doab(upper Indus River region) and the Ganges itself. ~400km with no good waterways to transport with. Unless you want to sail around India and come up the Ganges.. that'd be interesting..

It is impractical but India has been my fever dream for some time. My sailing tech is second to Europe's but give it a couple of decades and I would think something like that may happen. But scouting the area is all I can do as of right now as everything is directed westward towards my first goal of unifying Iraq and spanking my local rivals around me to stop the growing pains. But that will take years to stabilize and decades to assimilate so that I can direct those resources and industry to exploring India or continue the westward march in the name of Sumerian Greed.
