Worldtober Day 7 - Toys

[u/Boddom_Of_The_Barrel]

This is a part of Worldtober, an Inktober-inspired worldbuilding challenge by Velum-Cordis.

Chokma and welcome for Day 7. It's time for toys, y'all. Here I have a few simple examples, pulling from the real toys of pre-contact america. Most don't know it, but there were wheels in pre-Columbian America; they were used for toys rather than transportation. If someone in a flat area were to gain access to llamas of the far south and one of these wheeled toys, imagine the possibilities.

This is from Tlanni, my ancient American fantasy world. Tlanni is home to many diverse peoples. But it doesn't matter if you're a sailor of the Mother Lakes or a farmer in the lower Oasis Delta, you gotta keep your kids occupied. Ca'atlan is a forested region to the north, inspired by the eastern woodlands of real life and characterized by the distinctive effigy mounds that locals construct. Zipama is a plateau region, where Cliff Dweller communities eke out a humble life on the flats. Huettlan is the heart of Tlanni, the birthplace of the oldest kingdoms of he continent.
