New World Beginnings
1. History
began being recorded an estimate of 6,000 years ago but, the Europeans did not
dare to setting foot on land not until
the beginning of 1450, due to a differentiating stage and ambient. Pangaea has
geographically structured up to today, our home, planet Earth. The theory
behind the well- known Pangaea states that the continents were once nestled
together into one mega-continent. As time progressed by, the continents slowly
begin to spread out as drifting islands, and created the structure in which
they are today, meaning that they have not experienced any movements since Pangaea.
All this movement to Earth’s surfaces was the eventful outcome of the
Appalachian and Rocky Mountains and the Great Ice Age thrust down over North
America and scoured the present day American Midwest. As the Great Ice Age
diminished, so did the glaciers over North America.
35,000 years ago, the Land Bridge
Theory emerged linking Asia and North America across what is now known as the
Bering Sea. People were said to have walked across the "bridge"
before the sea level rose and sealed it off; thus populating the Americas.
2. The
Origin and development for the major Indian culture of the Americas started
after a while but due to diseases attacking Indians, brought them to their
extinction. The development of Indians began with the Incas, Mayas, and the
Aztecs. Maize was highly popular and was basically the main product that
arrived to the US around 1,200 B.C. Up until the present day, we until use
maize or “corn” and in many households has become a well-known food on our
dinner tables. The vast majority of people settled down to worked as farmers,
and when the right opportunity came by they decided to begin building adobe
homes.
3. After
the arrival of surprising of Christopher Columbus in 1492, conflicts and
changes begin to erupt when the diverse world of Europe, Africa, and the Americas
collided. After 30 dreadful days, he had generally assumed of reaching the East
Indies and therefore mistook the people as “Indians.” In the Americas, the culture was immediately
being changed up by the European invading their land. The Indian people of the
New World were divided into numerous diverse cultures speaking more than two
thousand different languages. Religion wise, the Indians were forced to
assimilate to Christianity, forced into slavery on the plantations, and men and women were often conflicted by the matrilinear conflict.
