Dlos was an early north-central civilization, thought to be founded by pioneers of the Dawn some time at the end of the first revolution. Its exact location and size are unclear, since most records of the era are Tarnarian, and no Tarnarian travelers or historians seemed to have had much interest in the area.

Dlos is mostly known in relation to Jolder, who was allegedly its king, although the fact that he chose to stay as king of a relatively small nomadic kingdom casts some doubt upon the matter.

Ludoh mentions Dlos twice: once in relation to the Dolysoh dynasty, talking about how the end of the family will come by the "fist of Dlos", probably meaning Jolder; and once in what appears to be a fictional account of the Dawn settlers, having one of the characters recite a stron about a faraway land of Dlos, "full of honeybees and the noble tsatskee".

There is no mention of Dlos by Porteek.
