Dawn of Time is a vanilla-styled architectural building mod that gives builders hundreds of blocks and furnishings for creating detailed homes, villages, castles, temples, and monuments inspired by cultures around the world. Its cultural sets include French, German, Japanese, Roman, Persian, Pre-Columbian, and Chinese designs, with examples such as French gargoyles and shutters, German timber frames and castle fittings, Japanese tatami and paper lanterns, Roman marble columns, Persian mosaics, and Pre-Columbian plastered stone and sculpted details. Across the sets, builders can work with structural pieces such as beams, pergolas, lattices, columns, doors, and shutters, alongside furniture, lighting, water features, fireplaces, statues, and decorative objects. The mod also includes distinctive functional details: German stonebrick portcullises and fountains, Japanese interiors with futons, low tables, tea sets, and irori fireplaces, and display blocks with nine inventory slots for showcasing items. Most structural blocks come in more than ten wood variants, while connected textures help walls, columns, and other building elements join into a continuous finish. A tabbed creative inventory organizes blocks by culture and category, making the large selection easier to browse. Optional integrations include Fusion or CTM for connected textures, Every Compat for extended building options, and Dramatic Doors for grand entrances.
Written from Modrinth and the GitHub README . How we write it

Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.
Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.
No harmful code found in the parts we could check
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
3 of its files for recent versions cannot be checked: its author does not let other sites download them from CurseForge.
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
We found nothing it sends, in the 13 of its 16 files we read
We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and code history and found none.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
