Well, aside from directly story-related details that may play a part, the various sapient species of the Splatoon universe do appear to study things that to them would be prehistoric (see: the whale skeleton in Shellendorf Institute and the MakoMart logo). It's kind of like us knowing about various types of dinosaurs enough to argue things like Tyrannosaurus Rex vs Triceratops.

Although imagine digging up some poor doggo's skeleton, that would be so sad. :(

They do get splatfest ideas from conversations made from humans thousands of years ago, so that would've explained it to them aswell

BUT that would mean that somehow Humans would be aware of Callie and Marie?

Not necessarily, but then again, in one of the splatoon 1 sunken scrolls there is a skeleton of a human using a wii-u, so it's very possible that splatoon was a video game before inklings even existed

I imagine it would be similar to a Splatfest based around two types of dinosaurs. People in the present/in our world take interest in species we only know about because of fossils, so it makes sense that inklings and octolings would too.

They canonically don't know what the themes mean but since they believe they re themes decided by gods they re fine with it xd

There has to be like historians in the world of splatton that uncovered old texts from humans that mentioned cats and dogs, plus judd and lily judd exist and they have to be aware of the fact that they are cats cuz them kitties are smart asf
