About Kattomec
Kattomec (a priori, artlang) is a language of some peoples that live in a dry environment of some sort. For now, this language describes a dialect of a few tribes that herd sheep, hunt and gather, build wells and mud/brick/straw/stone settlements and are known for their trade and carpet making.
