The first known evidence of large-scale, sedentary settlement in the islands is what is now known as the [[Nurmiara Hills Culture]] dating approximately from 9,000 BDN to around 4,000 BDN; sites corresponding to this culture have been found across the [[Nevgasira Plain]], farther north along the western coast of Masalna island almost up to present-day [[Osbane Province]], and even on Agalmare. Characteristics of this culture include elaborate pottery, of initially the "clam" and then the "twine-mark" style; extensive use of volcanic rock for tools such as adzes, arrowheads and sickles used for harvesting; firm evidence of coordinated agriculture on the Nevgasira Plain; and eventually the use of bronze artifacts, with locally produced copper and tin from Agalmare, including elaborate bronze goblets.
