10,109 B.C.
Grey Orion navigators and computer watchmen are first used as crew
aboard alien ships. Within a century, Ruddies will also be used as
starship crew, earning a reputation for reliability [FASA].

10,000 B.C.
The planet Vulcan is still at war with itself. It is the beginning of the
Age of Expansion, and the unification of Vulcan starts [GN 4].

9,999 B.C.
The Orion Alliance is forged in secret on Botchok, and the news is
passed by word of mouth to every colony. The Alliance, whose
membership is purely Ruddy and Grey, declares that every Orion must
master the alien technologies they find, with the ultimate aim of
liberating Botchok and overthrowing the Treaty of Kammzdast. The
Grey Orion Chairman, Klendal Hanok the Liberator, warns that
victory will come only after many patient generations and so subtly
that hardly anyone will notice [FASA].

The Stone Age on Earth: animal domestication and fire are developed [LOR,
SFD].

9,737 B.C.
The planets Prastor and Distrel in the Nevis system go to war over

resurrects their dead fallen in battle [TOS #81].

9,736 B.C.
The Tam Paupa is first worn on the planet Pandro (Garo VII) [Log 9].

9,700 B.C.

9,688 B.C.
The Bema revolt in Orion space. Over 50,000 Green Orions and
lower-class Ruddies stage an uprising protesting their working
conditions, which becomes a demand to liberate all Orions
everywhere and release the homeworld. Julin Hyrax the Brave
volunteers his Greys--all 3,000 of them--to the Magistrate of Bema
to stop the revolt. Distrustful of any Orion, the Magistrate
refuses. Julin leads his Greys, unarmed, against the revolutionary
army and demands their surrender. The army slaughters Julin's
Greys; only 22 survive the butchery. The Kammzdast signatories
remember the gesture as a sea-change in Orion behavior, and for a
while, the Orions revere Julin as a martyr to a better future.
This revolt becomes the last Orion revolt for 57 centuries. The
Era of Good Feeling begins (ending in 1492 B.C.). The Orions
laboriously build for themselves a reputation for loyalty, honesty,
and trustworthiness--a deception of the boldest kind. During this
period, the Orions will gain the rights to own their own enclaves
and industry and to serve on alien starships [FASA].

9,632 B.C.
A Kurlan Naiskos sculpture is constructed by a Master of Tarquin Hill
on the planet Kurl in the Third Dynasty [TNG 246].

9,630 B.C.
An alien station incorporating a time travel transporter system is built,
possibly by the Iconians or Iconian offshoots. It will be abandoned in a

"Enterprise" in 2370 [TNG #32].

Kepler's Star goes nova during this era. The Enser, an avian
civilization, will be greatly influenced by the star, interpreting
it as a sign of war in heaven. Over the next couple centuries they
will remake themselves--retooling their own biology from that of
planet-bound, oxygen-breathers to one that ingests radiation and
uses it to power their great winged bodies. After all have
undergone the transformation, they will launch themselves into
interstellar space to do battle with the universe for the soul of
God. The Enser desert their planet and all will die in the heart of the
supernova [TNG #24].

8,064 B.C.
War between the Joost-Tseetsk and Loor-Tseetsk races destroys their
culture spread throughout fourteen worlds in nine star systems. The
former retain their Sphere of Clans to some extent. The latter
degenerate into cave-dwellers on the planet Koorn [TNG #21].

Sometime during this era, the natives of Gamma Trianguli VI construct
Vaal: a vast underground computer topped off by a serpent head, and
eventually a god to the inhabitants. Kukulkan may have been responsible
[TA, HS/a].

7,631 B.C.
The first of 9 "Tears of the Prophets" orbs appear in the skies of
Bajora--all but one will be taken by the Cardassians. These orbs
possess unique properties and originate from an artificially generated
wormhole, the dwelling place of timeless beings which Bajoran religion
will refer to as the Prophets [DSN 401].

Note that according to Captain Sisko's visions in 2374 of Benny Russell,
a very similar orb will appear on Earth, brought there by a dying alien
renegade from Sirius. There it will fall into the possession of the
African Dogon tribe of the Mali Republic. At a fair in 1940, Russell's
exposure to the orb will alter his perception [DSN 538].

In the Delta Quadrant, an unknown race cuts a path on what will
someday become a Mikhal Traveler's outpost [V 161].

7,628 B.C.
Ferengi tradition stretches back to this era (Quark will claim).

Acquisition are created by the First Nagus Gint, who may in turn have
invented warp drive for the Ferengi [DSN 488, DSN 497, DSN #24].

The 4th "Awakening" occurs on Urrytha in the Delta Quadrant [V #12].
