"The most ancient and primitive of the Klingon weapons is the {jeqqIj}, the 
club or bludgeon." (KGT 65)

Trek notes:

Krell advised the village people on the manufacture of primitive flintlocks 
in their conflict with the hill people on the planet Neural. (TOS "A 
Private Little War")


>Antonyms: Hach

{Hach} "be developed (e.g. a civilization)" and {'Itlh} "be highly 
developed, advanced"

Cf. also {tay} "be civilized".
