      @@thcreedon Bro I am Amarukhan Indian, Aparently your a europeon & you know more about our people than me? No we lived in city's & farms & some tribes left the city's later on because of certain Sin or wickedness that would happen in the citys. We only lived in tents for the most part when we traveled & for the rights. Even the so called T-Pees your talking about where not just a tent but huts, just as they are today but they were better.
      Europeons moved into to some of those citys when they came after taking some of our people out. Like Los Angeles for instance. & NYC was also pre-existant. Go read your science & you'll find that most things originate from here. From animals, to water, to some of the oldest land. Most of which has been documented since the 1400's.
      SO let me help your mind since you believe were are nothing but savages. Today over 80% of the world is food wise sustained on foods that are Solely Indiginous to our tribes & this land. So tell me how we had everything needed to build empires, that currently sustains the worlds empires But we lived in tents... Thats just Propaganda at its finest. Casava (tapioka), Tomatoes, Potatoes, Corn, & i can go on & on all that came from our peoples & our ways. Which is why the progress from the western world exploded after they waged chemical & bio warefare on our peoples. The so called African Cheetah was brought from here, & later when they started dieing out in africa they inbred the couple that survived changing the species a bit to what they are today. Oh yeah the oldest most advanced citys in the world gues where your science says they were? Here. You don't supply the entire world with what they need to exist from simple tents anyone who believes that is a fool. AYo Hawwah Great Spirit Bless.

    For those questioning the lack of exploration of slavery back then, always remember every documentary, book and paper u watch or read on history chooses a specific angle to approach a topic. Due to that, sometimes not all topics are explored. It's very easy to verify this by googling any historical period and reading to see what happened during it. There will be differences in information given, how detailed, a topic covered in one article will be missing in the next or just given a nod to and vice versa. It is for this very reason that any history professor worth their salt will insist you research several sources on the same topic so you can obtain the full picture of what happened.

    I grew up in central Iowa. We had what was called a potluck. A spinoff from potlatch, idk. It was mainly associated with our church fellowship. We usually had one at least once a month. Each family, brought a meat dish, a vegetable dish, and a dessert. Some of the richer folk would bring an added salad dish too. That's a lot of food, especially when the membership on Sunday was pushin' 300+. There were 8 of us kids. The Coster's beat all, in kids.(14? was it). The church provided the tea, coffee, sugar and creamer. We brought our own table setting. But if there were visitors, there was plates, silverware, cups and glasses in the church kitchen. Everybody got something to eat, and then some. Usually by the end of the day, 2-3p, folks started packing up their dishes and headed home. Farm community, many had chores to do, before turning around and coming back at 630p for Sunday night services too.
    The kids played inside and outside. In the summertime, we'd conqueror the city parks and have our potlucks there too. Until they built a bigger kitchen and gym. That was nicer, and cooler in the summertime. The folks sat around and visited. Doing genealogy, and this was something that came with our ancestor pioneers. Most came from PA, MA, NY, VA, KY, OH, IN, IL, WI states.
    And monthly potlucks was a common practice with them too.
    This meal setting was also a common practice for weddings too. Saved gobs on money, but the bride's family provided the cake.
    When I moved to Oklahoma. Potlucks at the church I went to, sucked. Okie's are stingy when it comes to feeding a crowd. Many show up with fork in hand, but no food! I tried and tried to get folks to bring the three dish meal so everybody could get something to eat. We were also feeding several young, bachelors that could eat a house empty. It was horrible. Loving people though.

      The first recorded use of the word 'potluck' was in a stage play in England in 1592. It is highly unlikely that the English word derives from the native American word, they just sound similar and both refer to the preparation of food.

    Indigenous Americans behaved exactly like everyone else in the days before Columbus. That means they were constantly on guard against hostile neighbors that wanted to take everything away using violence, while keeping an eye out for any weaker tribe they could conquer and take everything away. The Native American Sioux call The Black Hills their "sacred land." That was after the Sioux massacred the Pawnee and took it for themselves.

Not Wyoming Black Hills where Lakota Dakota and Nakota Sioux tribe Nation resided. These 3 tribes were indigenous to Black Hills territory in Wyoming. So no Indigenous tribe acted like Whites and stole any territory. If it belonged to any Indigenous tribe within the territory. Just like the Sioux never stole any territory from Nebraska and Oklahoma from Pawnee. The conflicts were over gaming rights for trade. Nothing else. You don't know what the hell you're talking about. The concept of demarcation lines was a European concept. Not any Indigenous concept. Indigenous tribes would allow Foreigners entrance through territory with trading. Unless the Foreign tribe violated indigenous laws.. Indigenous philosophy did not condon land ownership before 1472*

      Some old tribes from my country practiced ritual cannibalism. The old family of tribes had subgroups that fought wars, took prisoners for rituals and sacrifices.
      Indigenous to America used natural landmarks to define boundaries and important sites. Many moved and had to aquire resources in the same ways most humans have. Trading alone didn't always cut it. Some have traded with tribes that they've fought before. There were also deviations from family of tribes. Different types of marriages including political marriages that could benefit families or the tribe. There were wars and battles as well as alliances. Wars fought over land is nothing new.
      No different than the old tribes and clans of Europe. Similar habits, wars, lifestyles and beliefs.

The idea that people were not here before 15,000 has been disproved, and people are digging deeper and finding artifacts that just keep pushing that date further and further back into history.

    I was once told the history of the Ancient Ones of the Southwest by an elder named Blue Star. She told that after the sky gods left the Central Americas the native peoples did what they could to bring them back. First offerings sacrifice of food and flowers. When that did not work they offered jewels and gold, when that did not work they offered animals, when that did not work they offer human sacrifice. But when it came to offering the very young as offerings a huge split happened in the old culture. The ones who believed in sacrifice stayed and the ones who did not believe in killing moved north, in two waves, into what is now the Southwest and Southeastern US and beyond. They may have been part of the mound builders. No matter what was offered, the gods were not allowed to return to Earth. I think the Ancient Ones made a good choice to leave the old ways behind.

The lifestyles were not the same, until Europeans introduced themselves to the Indigenous Americans. Tremendous changes took place after that.

To set the record straight, 1,500 years earlier, In the year 507 B.C., the Athenian leader Cleisthenes introduced a system of political reforms that he called demokratia, or “rule by the people” (from demos, “the people,” and kratos, or “power”).

Makes sense why i have a match with the black gentleman bc i dont have africa in my dna. There is a seminole tribe that i recently learned about and thats my connection, its intrigued me even more now that that info adds up . i was always wondering how the black gentleman as my cousin and stories about Seminole Indian , now i know that connection, it ultimately makes sense to what ive known and have Bee n told.
