The cultural history of the indigenous peoples in the United States may continue to be complicated. Thousands of years, and it is a low-level civilization, so there are no accurate statistics.

Indians and other North American indigenous people live on this vast land.

They did not have their own written language, but they had a rich oral literature. Regarding the population of indigenous peoples, historical statistics vary greatly. According to estimates in 1492 (Columbus first came to North America), the total number of North American Indians was approximately 8 million to 10 million. As European colonization progressed, the health and territory of Aboriginal peoples were seriously threatened. Due to various diseases brought by Europeans, the Aboriginal population dropped by 90% within 150 years; their villages were destroyed, and the land originally used for livestock or farming was destroyed.
