    The Coastal and Plateau Native Americans have different lifestyles in food, housing, and transportation because of where they lived. The Cascade Mountains separate the Coastal and Plateau tribes, and puts them into two different environments, caused by the rainshadow effect. Being in two different environments, means that both of the tribes are in different climates, which changes how they live. The Coastal live in a colder and wetter climate due to being so close to the Pacific Ocean. The Plateau tribe has a warmer and dryer climate since they are farther away.…

    The Southeast Indians’ jobs and roles were really structured and really effective. One of these jobs and roles are Hunters. The hunters of the group spent most of their time hunting. The hunting tools they had were Spears and Bow and Arrows. The hunters caught all sorts of animals, including bears so they were risking their lives to feed the group. A second job/role was Gatherers. These were women who grabbed herbs and fruits for the group. They used the herbs to heal wounded/sick people. They were out grabbing herbs and fruit instead of taking care of the children most of the time. One more job/role is a farmer. They grew crops for the group. Some of the crops they grew were corns, beans, squash, and tobacco. The farmers figured out that if…

    The concept of race, according to Rosenberg, has been “entangled with the notion of ‘civilization’” (Rosenberg 316). Past historians studying races tended to compare them through their respective cultural tenets and such methodology was susceptible to establishing a hierarchical construction of race. William Fyffe, although not a historian, proceeds to document the discrepancies and similarities between the Cherokee Indians and the colonials in his letter to his brother. According to Fyffe, the Cherokees valued war and orderly communication amongst one another and these cultural beliefs were rather antithetical to European culture.…

Because of the limited food supply, Great Basin Indians traveled in small groups. In winter they typically lived in villages along the edge of valley floors near water and firewood. They moved their summer camps frequently so they would not exhaust the plants and animals…

    According to what was presented, I believe that the Inca civilization was the most viable one from the other five Native American cultures. First, they formed one of the most highly developed societies of America. They lived in a region full of landforms, the Andean America, and they made great achievements in agriculture, developing new methods of planting and an irrigation system. Second, this society constructed a road system spread out over the whole Empire, where information, products and people would travel from city to city. Finally, they had a well-developed social system where all obeyed the Emperor, as they used to call the Inca (descendent of the sun).…
