theres no evidence that suggest that humans and monsters lived together,they sure "ruled accross the land peacefully"as said by the kickstarter but that may mean that they lived without war not that they lived toghter as friends etc...If it was the case,i doubt that monsters would fear humans for milenia before Chara fell and proved they can be kind too,that means that they never truly knew humans.And the way the ancient glyph says"their attack was sudden"make it sound like the two races lived separately and that humans attacked monsters's kingdom,i mean how the situation where humans "attack suddenly"is possible if both races lived together???

And yeah i DO think the war was result of fear of unknown.I mean,yeah they feared that monsters could absorb their souls but why would they fear it??simple:because monsters would kill them with this power,which means that it was out of fear of unknown.And monsters likely killed a human for their soul to become strong and protect themselves if humans attack them.So yeah the whole thing was out of fear of unknown,in other words a misunderstanding(which fits the games tone and message)We also know that monsters had their own kingdom while they lived on the surface as the boss monster from intro wears the delta rune emblem,the one that represents monsters"s kingdom and i dont think that it had another meaning back then because nothing implies so and as otherwise monsters would have no reason to wear this symbol before the war's events,in the otehr hand that make sence for them to wear it if it represented their kingdom even back then.
