Pre-Columbian Native Americans

We tend to think of American history beginning with the first voyage of Christopher Columbus to the New World in 1492.  In reality, it was not a new world, in fact people had been living there for thousands of years.  Many civilizations had sprouted and thrived in fertile North America.

Our first area of study in 8th grade social studies features Pre-Columbian Native American civilizations.  We will study the geographic, economic, social and political aspects of several tribes from the different culture areas.
