| header = ''Everspace'' - Ancients [[codex]] entry
| codex = The Ancients are believed to be a species which dwell in unexplored territories beyond [[Cluster 34]]. As yet not encountered in physical form by [[Colonials]], their existence is referred to often in dialogue with the [[Okkar]] and evidenced by ruins and relics scattered throughout the Cluster. As no living or dead Ancient has yet been discovered, their genome has been impossible to isolate for further answers as to their origins. The Okkar revere their knowledge and abilities and ascribe god-like qualities to them. Legend has it that they were once not dissimilar to the Okkar species, supposedly reptiloid, but transcended matter through learning and meditation to become "higher beings". The Okkar also attribute the Ancients with vastly sophisticated technologies capable of feats unimaginable to Colonial scientists. Many remain skeptical of the claims, however.
