"Only in Gunderland is the pure Hyborian stock found unblemished. Thus Gundermen are uniformly compactly-built, tall, tawny-haired and gray-eyed."

Robert E. Howard's essay "The Hyborian Age"

Gunderland is a northernmost part of Aquilonia on a border with Cimmeria. Known for gloomy, dense forests full of game. Conan's father was taking him hunting there. During his early career as a thief Conan had a friend Nestor who was a Gunderman.
