Wait wait wait a second… What’s that in the North? Androphagi? If might not got this right, but doesn’t that mean Maneaters? I have to check this.
EDIT:
Yup. Wikipedia agrees:
> The name Androphagi is a Latinisation of the ancient Greek name Androphagoi (Ancient Greek: Ἀνδροφάγοι), which means „man-eaters.“ This name is a descriptive one based on their reported practice of cannibalism; how they called themselves is unknown.[2]

Tigrahauds and Haumavargis. Just a random memory de-archived .
