The last tribe of the Paleo Indians is the Plano tribe. They live from 10,000-7500 BP. These people had a greater diversity then the Folsom people. They lived in a cool and more moist climate. The Plano tribe had a generalized hunter-gathering with a generalized toolkit. In their toolkit they had projectile points which were long but not fluted. The Plano people not only ate animals but food like sunflower, prickly pear, amaranth, and limber pine. Reading about these people you can start to see that they have more organized hunting methods.

Some of the biggest events being the Civil war and the Expansion of the West. These effected the Native tribes greatly! With these events happening the Native tribes were forced upon with religion and other American ideals. Although a positive impact the American Period has had is the impact with the railroad. The railroad brought many interested tourist and created a very marketable economy for the tribes of the Southwest. With the new railroads it also was able to bring the Indians supplied goods. In particular, the Navajo women would weave decorative rugs for high profit which was a great community for the Navajo people. Although this was such a positive influence for the Navajo people and other Indians they still were faced with a lot of persecution. In the span of about 100 years, many acts and bills were passed that dealt with Indians there rights. Some were negative and then increasingly started to become more positive such as The Indian Reorganization Act of 1934 or the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance…
Thousands of years before the arrival of the Europeans, there was a man who was celebrated by numerous ancient Americans. In the chapter he was given the name Sun Falcon. Sun Flacon was said to be a great political and spiritual leader. He was buried at Cahokia, the biggest ritualistic site in ancient North America. Not much is known about this man, but the small amount of information there is came from archeological findings. Archaeologists were able to conclude many things from Sun Falcons grave that helped them understand the basic characteristics of ancient Americans who controlled America until 1492. Historians and Archaeologists are both terms used to describe a profession in which one seeks to learn more about the past. Both use artifacts as sources of information. The difference between them is that archaeologists use physical objects to help them obtain information, while historians use mostly written documentation to look for the same information. Writing is a system of symbols used to keep note of verbal language. It originated in places like China, Egypt, and Central America nearly 8,000 years…
The Indians would cooperate with the seasons instead of trying to do something that they couldn’t during the season. Therefore, by working with instead of against the seasons they didn’t have a large influence on the landscape. Since they worked with the seasons they would move whenever the resource they needed was not in season. Therefore they wouldn’t stay in one place too long to create a large impact.…
For many decades ancient Greeks has shaped our ideas of what perfection should look like. Specifically, America’s ideas of edifices that speak of grandeur and influence. Greek columns and architraves were fashioned with mythological creatures, flowers, and scenes of battles, which are what is seen in American’s most prominent buildings throughout history. During the period of the 18th century, many of the initial buildings of the United States administration were structured. Currently, the supreme specimens of the Greek’s architectural patterns is the United States Capitol Building, which was brought about in late 1700s, by Thomas Jefferson, who wanted a duplication of an ancient Roman temple. He thought the federal Capitol should be designed…

Indians made a huge contribution to our modern culture and life, including economic, social, political, and environmental fields. Jack Weatherford in his book Indian Givers stated, that Indians who lived on the lands of Americas were very wise men, and they have taught the people from all over the world many useful things in many fields like industry and agriculture, food and culinary, economy and medicine. It is very important for people who live now to understand this and to be grateful for everything that we have.…

Greek civilization, in many ways, was the most advanced population of it's time. The Greeks have created a great stir in modern day values, events, and philosophy, and they were just getting warmed up. The question, "What did the Greeks contribute to modern society", was posed, and I will begin to answer. The Greeks created a vast religious system, filled with heroes, gods, villains, monsters, and more. This has fascinated us, and has even influenced some of our brands of clothing, Nike for example (Nike being the goddess of victory). Speaking of Nike, the Olympic games were held in celebration of her, and was often seen as the main event. She was held in the hand of the statue of Athena during the games, and the olive wreaths were actually…

These people have set their minds to what they want to accomplish and if they do not achieve it the first time, they try again until they achieve the result they want.…
Like many countries who have been invaded by a foreign power, Native Americans are also regarded to have been subjected to significant change. When the Europeans first arrived in the late 1400s, they brought with them the intent of not only exploring to find India, but also to find gold and much more wealth. The Europeans made a mistake in their navigation causing them not to arrive in India, but rather what they referred to as the “New World.” The Europeans had stumbled upon the Native Peoples that occupied that place. The Native Peoples were soon to become overpowered and eventually become slaves of the Europeans. With the Europeans now being part of the Native world, they eventually left a significant impact, an impact that affected them influentially, ethnocentrically, and population-wise.…
Indians became interested in the resources that they Europeans could provide. Huge changes in the lives of Indians was created. The way they would see life and live life changed. Native Americans were eager to trade dear hides in exchange for clothing that the Europeans wore and metal tools. Even under some circumstances, Indians traded bow and arrows for firearms. Trade may seem to be a great first step into development but it was the complete opposite. Indians lost traditions in the process of trade. Skills that the Indians shared soon vanished. The thought of “only take from nature what you need” relinquished. Hunters relied more heavily on animals for trade rather than food. Instead of using the bones for tools, Indians preferred to produce such things by metal that was traded. Sure, trade had its favorable moments but not more than the loss of customs.…
