Most timelines naturally focus on persons or political entities that are well documented historically. However, there are those enigmatic people and places that one figures must have had a definite impact on history but about which little written material survives, or was never created in the first place. One example from the western hemisphere would be the city of Teotihuacan, which at its height in 450 AD had a population of 150,000, the largest city in the Americas at the time. From its base in the Valley of Mexico it stretched its political and artistic influence as far away as the Highland Maya in Honduras. Sadly they left no written records of their own so their history has to be pieced together from archaeological studies.
Who and what are your favorite 'blank slates' that you would enjoy reading timelines about? How do you speculate they would influence well-attested persons and nations in an ATL?
