Indian history

Maya is a branch of ancient India and the only nation in America that left written records. They constitute a diverse Native American people, living in southern Mexico and northern Central America.

About 2000 years ago, Indians in the southwestern United States began to grow corn. 200 to 700 years is a cold period, which hinders the development of agriculture. From 700 to 1200, a village-based culture developed in the Mississippi River valley, which was characterized by progressive farming methods and complicated religious ceremonies.

During this period, the aborigines scattered in the southwest, such as Anasazi, Mogolong and Hohokam, all belonged to the pre-Pueblo society. Mogolong's agricultural technology was improved by Anasazi, using rainwater to guide river water to irrigate crops;

The Johokan culture in southern Arizona relies on irrigation to maintain its agricultural economy. In the first period of 1 000 BC, Pueblo culture developed the technology of building rooms with stones and made great progress in pottery making.

1300 ~ 1700 is a retrogressive Pueblo period. Many stone houses were abandoned due to the migration of residents to the east and south. The modern Pueblo period began in the late16th century, when the Spanish came to settle here. Some features of Pueblo culture and farming methods still exist today.

Extended information Indians are the collective name of all native Americans except Inuit (also known as Eskimos), not just a certain nation or race. Indians are distributed in South America and North America. They speak hundreds of languages, often called Indian or Native American languages. So far there is no recognized classification of Indian ethnic groups and their languages. ?

/kloc-European colonists who came to America after the 0/6th century enslaved and even slaughtered Indians. By 2 1 century, there were about 30 million Indians, and most of their hybrids were descendants of male colonists and local women. In the United States, Indians only account for about 1.2% of the total population.
