Vulcan civilization expands back significantly farther than that of the [[Human]]s, and there are many gaps in Vulcan prehistory. Around 2700 BC, they were a barbaric, war-like species whom were near self-extinction, suffering through an aggressive colonizing period considered savage by many modern Vulcans today.

Around 2700 BC, they were a barbaric, war-like species whom were near self-extinction, suffering through an aggressive colonizing period considered savage by many modern Vulcans today. Some Vulcans began to mentally train themselves so to suppress their emotions by the middle of the third millennium (BC). With many religions available and celebrating deities of war, death and peace, holidays during this time ceased to be observed in the following centuries (however, some rituals were preserved, such as the Vulcan wedding ceremony). | ||
The inhabitants of Vulcan would be tearing themselves apart by the 4th century. Their rampant emotions, combined with their hostile warrior culture, led to many wars utilizing weapons such as atomic bombs (and the [[ma:Stone of Gol|Stone of Gol]]). A philosopher named [[ma:Surak|Surak]] would emerge from the chaos, and proposed leading a life governed by logic, rather than emotion. His teachings would quickly spread and be recorded in the Kir'Shara, and finally, Vulcans would begin on the path to peace. Surak himself would ultimately die of radiation sickness on Mount Seleya, now one of the most revered sites on Vulcan - though his katra was saved. | The inhabitants of Vulcan would be tearing themselves apart by the 4th century.
