Detailed explanation-1: -Tribal societies were generally organized by leaders rather than rulers, governed by consensus rather than decree, and directed by a sense of community more than by individualism.
Detailed explanation-2: -Native Americans hold a deep reverence for nature. Native Americans operate under the conviction that all objects and elements of the earth-both living and nonliving-have an individual spirit that is part of the greater soul of the universe.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Native Americans used natural resources in every aspect of their lives. They used animal skins (deerskin) as clothing. Shelter was made from the material around them (saplings, leaves, small branches, animal fur). Native peoples of the past farmed, hunted, and fished.
Detailed explanation-4: -Some were expert riders. They could lean over the neck of a galloping horse and fire an arrow accurately. Many were hunter-gatherers and lived nomadically, moving from place to place in search of food. They followed buffalo herds and made temporary homes in tepees (cone-shaped tents) made from animal hide.
