The old humans are a fictional human species from Ian Irvine's arc of novels, The Three Worlds Cycle.

[edit] Characteristics

The old humans are the original species of Santhenar (where the action in The View from the Mirror and The Well of Echoes takes place) and are the only species that are not long lived. It is rarer among them to have great talents for the Art, though a lot of people among them have minor talents. The other species think of them as primitive. Old humans are the most human-like species of the four in the Three Worlds series.
