Thank you for reading this book. It picks up where my public education left off. What I'd give to have seen what this land looked like before my ancestors carved it up and monetized/commodified it. I grew up in North Georgia where anytime I was in the woods, I never felt alone. I always knew I was wandering through sacred land. I tried to imagine the people before me, what they looked and sounded like. I hope to learn more about them through this book. Again, thank you for reading this.

My daughter is doing a report for school about the Mexicas a.k.a. Aztecs and some of the information she found on Warfare does not sound right to me. She found that they used clubs, to me that sounds more like the Vikings? I read from the 1491 New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus, the Mexicas used spears, darts, and arrows. Can you share something about Warfare, I would appreciate it.

The Mexica (or Aztecs) used various weapons. The "club" that you are referring to was the macahuitl, a bat-shaped wooden club of sorts that had blades made from obsidian, which is sharper than steel. You did NOT want to get cut by those. The sling was also used as a long range weapon. Warfare was brutal, however, to the Mexica, it was vital for enemies to be captured alive, to be sacrificed. If you check out my other book on here, titled "Daily Life Of The Aztecs", you will find all of the answers you are seeking. Thanks for your comment.

The Bison is considered sacred to many Indigenous to many people. There were 5 million bison in 1607. By 1898, there were less than 1,000, or so. Thankfully they are NOT extinct, as the europeans tried to kill all of them off, another act of cultural genocide. There was 100 million plus Indigenous peopls in 1492. By 1898, 95 percent of that number had been killed through genocide.

So you are proud of your white privilege, your history of rape, genocide, land theft, biological warfare through smallpox, forced cultural assimilation and racism? Because to me, that is what i see when I hear the term "white".

The truth isn't racist.

I'm Indigenous, last I checked. And I am not a racist, I don't have the privilege to deny whites anything, the way you racists have denied us ever since your invasion on October 12th, 1492. i speak the truth, not racial hatred. And what glass house would that be again? LMFAO silly bigot...

P.S. - Hawkermustang, if you really do believe ibn what you say, why erase your comments? Don't worry, I have screen-shotted your comments where you state that whites are superior to my people... what a gutless coward.

LMFAO sorry, the "soultreans" are false. "A 2008 study of relevant oceanographic data from the time period in question, co-authored by Kieran Westley and Justin Dix, concluded, however, that "it is clear from the paleoceanographic and paleo-environmental data that the LGM in the North Atlantic does not fit the descriptions provided by the proponents of the Solutrean Atlantic Hypothesis". In other words, the only place you are Indigenous to is EUROPE, not here. Try again!
