Before 20th Century

This is a timeline of events that occurred before the 20th century.

Before the Convergence

 * Before the Universe began, six singularities existed. These were formed into the six Infinity Stones (Space, Mind, Reality, Power, Soul, and Time) by the Cosmic Entities some time after the Universe came into existence.
 * The Celestials use the Power Stone to impose judgment upon enemy civilizations. Over time, the Beings are overwhelmed by the Stone's power and attempt to dispose of it by encasing it in an Orb and storing it away in the Temple Vault on Morag.
 * In order to raise their chances in the war against their enemies, a rogue Kree faction visits numerous planets, genetically altering a number of sentient life forms in order to create biological weapons. One of the planets visited is Earth, and the Kree's experiments give rise to a unique caste called the Inhumans that will achieve superpowers if exposed to the Terrigen Mist. They construct the Diviners, containment devices built to hold Terrigen Crystals. The Diviners will only open if an Inhuman brings them to a cityscape built beneath the planet's surface. The Kree hierarchy discovers the faction's illegal activities and the operation is abandoned. The Kree disperse from Earth, leaving behind six Diviners, the city, and at least one of their deceased kin.
 * A powerful inhuman is born on Earth. Other Inhumans, afraid of its power, banished him to a distant planet through a kree monolith. Followers of the exiled inhuman start planning its return to Earth in order to let him rule it. This followers are later known as HYDRA society.
