The Zonai are a mysterious yet unseen, prehistoric tribe of barbarians whose existence is marked by ruins and an armor set in.

Characteristics
No one has yet seen a member of this tribe. However, it is known that they were a savage, warlike tribe from the Faron Region. They constructed several ancient ruins made of stone. Their name comes down to us from their largest ruin site: the Zonai Ruins. Their wild and untamed ways are known by the the fierce power enchanted within their armor. Etched into the stonework associated with this tribe is a spiral symbol, which is considered to be the tribe's crest.

History
Very little is known about this tribe's history. But what is known can be gleaned from the remains of their civilization left behind all across Hyrule. Of course their established stronghold, the Zonai Ruins, extends through Damel Forest to the Spring of Courage, which rests in the heart of Faron.

The Zonai appear to have vanished a long time ago. Many of their relics are tied to the ancient shrines, and their powerful set of Armor is gifted by the Monks found in Shrines at the heart of three massive mazes: North Lomei Labyrinth, South Lomei Labyrinth and Lomei Labyrinth Island. The mazes themselves appear to be related to the tribe, but their exact relationship remains unknown.

The sequel to
In the reveal trailer, Link and Zelda are seen exploring a vast cave system which has many Zonai-made stone monuments, such as pillars and animal carvings.
