EARLY NORTH AMERICAN PEOPLE Chapter 1, Section 2

EARLY NATIVE AMERICANS Many Native American cultures existed in North America before Europeans (white man) arrived in the 1500’s. -Anasazi: Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona and Utah -Mississippians: lived near present day Illinois.

EARLY NATIVE AMERICANS -Iroquois and Cherokee: New York state, North Carolina and South Carolina

The Anasazi Resided in present-day Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico. The Anasazi civilization began around 1 A.D. and lasted until about 1300 A.D. The Anasazi were cliff dwellers. They built pueblos (community dwellings) into the walls of steep cliffs. They used adobe (sun-dried mud brick) to build their dwellings

The Anasazi

The Anasazi Pueblo Bonito was an important trade and religious center for the Anasazi. Hundreds of roads linked Pueblo Bonito with other surrounding villages. Mesa Verde: An Anasazi community located in present day Colorado. Mesa Verde had several thousand inhabitants and was the capital city of the Anasazi.

The Anasazi

The Anasazi In 1300 A.D. the Anasazi began leaving their pueblos and cliff dwellings to settle into smaller communities. Their large villages may have been abandoned due to drought.

The Hopewell & Mississippians The Hopewell and Mississippians were a population of mound builders. These groups were located in Pennsylvania, Illinois and parts of the Mississippi River valley. Like the Maya and Aztec, these Native Americans built pyramid type buildings. Some of these mounds contained burial chambers and some were topped with temples.

The Hopewell Lived between 200 B.C. and 500 A.D. Built huge burial mounds in the shape of animals: birds, bears, and snakes. Archaeologists have found fresh water pearls, cloth and copper in the mounds. This is an indication the Hopewell were traders.

The Hopewell The Hopewell Snake: used as a burial tomb.

The Mississippians One group of mound builders were known as the Mississippians. CAHOKIA: was the largest settlement of mound builders and was built by the Mississippians. Cahokia was located near present day Illinois and was built around 900 A.D. Cahokia had a population of around 16,000 people.

Cahokia

Cahokia

Cahokia Cahokia resembled the great cities of Mexico (such as the Maya). There was a temple located on top of the main pyramid. High priests studied the movement of the sun and stars.

The Iroquois and Cherokee Lived in the woodlands of eastern North America. Formed complex political systems to govern their nations. Had formal law codes and formed peace federations; governments that linked the two groups together. Women had strong influence in these tribes.
