The '''Old Time''', ([[TV]]: ''[[The Deadly Assassin (TV story)|The Deadly Assassin]]'') which by some accounts contained the '''[[Dark Times]]''', the '''[[Time of Chaos]]''' and the '''[[Age of the Pythias]]''', ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Cat's Cradle: Time's Crucible (novel)|Cat's Cradle: Time's Crucible]]'') was the time on [[Gallifrey]] before [[Rassilon]] had created the [[Time Lord]] civilisation.

A separate account indicated that the Old Time referred to all history on the Pythias' side of the [[Gate of the Past or Future]], with the other side being the Time Lords' [[New Time]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Lungbarrow (novel)|Lungbarrow]]'') The term "Old Time" literally referred to an obsolete form of [[time]] which was replaced by a new form of time in the [[anchoring of the thread]].

During this time, the [[Great Schism]] occurred, a war between the forces loyal to Rassilon and the female priesthood of the [[Pythia]]. Pythia lost, her ruling matriarchy destroyed and she was banished from Gallifrey. As punishment for her defeat, Pythia [[curse]]d the Time Lords with [[sterility]]. This led to the creation of [[Loom]]s, as a means of reproducing without sex.
