The following is an attempt to incorporate the history of the Cauldrom region (placed near the Hellfurnaces and Amedio Jungle in the Dungeon Greyhawk map) into the existant Greyhawk chronology. Each entry shows the Common Year (CY), "Years Ago" as listed in the Shackled City hardcover, the events that occurred in the Cauldron region and the events that occurred in the wider Flanaess, with a leaning towards the Amedio and its surrounds (The Hold of the Sea Princes, Keoland etc ...). The beginning of the Shackled City campaign is some time in 594 CY according to the Age of Worms overload PDF and Dungeon #124. All Flanaess information is from the GREYCHRONDEX, available at Canonfire.
