Nowat

Nowat was an historian who lived some time before the Atom War of 12,237 BCE (reference stardate −142/3709.12).

He authored The Origin Of People, which discussed the origins of the Orion race. For research, Nowat had apparently had access to manuscripts, later lost to future generations, that discussed the possibility that Orions were not native to Botchok (Rigel VIII) and had been planted there by aliens.
