An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The Xyoxyo people live in the Far southern Peninsula, which is mostly desert, with a few rivers and dotted oasises. They are distinctive within the continent for speaking the only language (Xyoxyo) that contains click consonants. This has led to them being compared, in some ways, with the Ånos, who have the only language on the continent that is naturally ordered to be Object-first in the sentances.

  • The Xyoxyo people live in the Far southern Peninsula, which is mostly desert, with a few rivers and dotted oasises. They are distinctive within the continent for speaking the only language (Xyoxyo) that contains click consonants. This has led to them being compared, in some ways, with the Ånos, who have the only language on the continent that is naturally ordered to be Object-first in the sentances. The Xyoxyo, however, are quite unlike the Ånos. They have very dark skin, though men and women (mostly, in the time Balor Ebonthal was alive, the women) paint their entire body with a mixture of butterfat and red clay, known as Nxatik [ᵑǃa.tik], which makes them appear ruddy red to outsiders.
