A very thorough thread Zoinkwiz :) good job!
I'll need to pick through it in detail to see if I can help in any way.
You've clearly been to the museum and carefully noted the dates! I thought it's worth pointing out that the outpost north west of Ardougne also contains some useful, though mainly local, bits of historical info, as do the elven books in Lletya.

Nice thread, Zoink!
I got some things you can add, and some things you safely can remove.. Feel free to add these modified versions.
1, Added info about Bandos:
Bandos: Also known as the "Big High War God" is the god of war, worshipped by the Goblins, Ogres, Hobgoblins, Orks, Ourgs, Jogres, Mogres, . Bandos were forgotten by all other races after the God Wars, but his own, primitive races continued to worship him. In the 5th age, he tried to come back to Gielinor using a member of the Dorgeshuun tribe as his avatar, his chosen commander. This plan were, however, foiled by the goblin and an brave adventurer.
2, Added and removed some info about Taverley: (Herblore were not founded by the druids.)
Taverley does not have much of a known history, although the druids, whom were the first wizards on Gielinor, originated here. The city is the location of the Stone of Jas, a highly powerfull artifact.
3, Added some info about Hemenster:
Hemenster is a small fishing village just a bit north of Ardougne. It is the site of many important historical places, among them the Temple of Ikov, previous location of the Staff of Armadyl, and the Big Plain of Mud, an area sacred to the goblins.
4, Added minor info about Mort'ton:
Mort'ton used to be a quiet little market town which was usually where everyone was buried, hence its becoming the main place for cremation and such. They built a temple, dedicated to the god Flamtaer, god of fire. The town was cursed when a poisonous gas was created by the Vampyres from a sewage outlet on the city's western wall, and the citizens were turned into 'afflicted'. Strangely, this also caused the dead bodies around there to become Shades.

5, Added minor info about the history of Nardah:
Nardah is a small town on the eastern side of the desert. The city were founded by a refugee fleeing from the God Wars, whom Elidinis saved, in return for her and her descendant's worshiip and loyalty. Nardah was always a fertile and moist area, until the citizens disposed of their statue to the Desert God, Elidnis, the God of fertility and growth. Nardah then became a dry, unfertile area where it is a struggle to survive. If an adventurer were to bring back the statue to the people of Nardah, the town would surely flourish again.
6, A new god, Flamtaer:
Flamtaer: A relatively unknown deity. He were worshipped in the city of Mort'ton, most likely before the arrival of the Iceyenes and the vampyre's conquest of Morytania. He is believed to be the god of fire, as Mort'ton is centered around cremation, his name sounds similar to the word "Flame" and his temple got a "fire altar", were a sacred fire burns. The diary of Herbi Flax mentions that he, according to the locals, represented some kind of elemental power.
7, A new god, the Freneskae Creator-God:
Freneskae Creator-God is a evil deity mentioned in the legends of the Mahjarrat. He is said to have created the Muspah trough combining his most fearsome creatures.
8, A new god, the Camel God: (Add him to the Desert Pantheon)
The Camel God is a largely unknown desert god who the historian Aristarchus claims the Mahjarrat Akthanakos based his appearance on after his arrival to Gielinor.

9, New section, if you wish so. The Fremennik Pantheon:
The Fremennik Pantheon: The fremennik people worship an array of beings, some of them merely powerful spirits, others that may be actually gods. Among them is the Kendal, whom a impostor claims to be during the Mountain Daughter quest, the Fossegrimen, a spirit of the sea, the Draugen, spirit of drowned sailor, and the Daughter of the Mountain, a human who ascended to spirit, and therefore according to the fremennik, semi-divine status.
I guess that's about it.. feel free to add any of this.
