Since royal b-stards can only be Imperial Legions of Empress Hesta, while cavemen refrers to the Nords in control of the Reach. Unless you are refering to normal Reachmen, having to fight to survive against their brethren, who turned cavemen and Forsworn at the same time. Since Forsworn are clearly more to cavemen then Nords, that or they just have a wierd culture that similar to Bosmer in the sense that thy make their weapon and armor out of bones of those they killed. However, unlike Bosmer, they don't worship nature, if they did, they wouldn't let their Matrons (Hagrevens) to sacrifice Sprigans. If you asked me, Forsworn are a little too much wrong in the head. They are more then likely also canibals, I mean they wouldn't just use the bodies of fallen Nords to make axes out of their skulls. More then likely they eat the Nords they have killed and anyone and anything else. Have you ever wondered, why the Shrine of Namira is within Reach? At least Bosmer, don't like it if they have to resort to canibalism, due to their pact of not wasting any part of anything they have killed and they try to avoid any conflicts with men or mer. I maybe wrong about Forsworn canibalism, but they certainly collect skulls of their fallen foes and make their weapons out of stones and Nordic skulls. Blame the ancient Nords who were equally savages, they have made a vicious, blood-thirsty savages out of the native Reachmen. I've never heard anything about Nords doing much wrong to the Reachmen, the Reachmen always seem to start trouble first.
