Detailed explanation-1: -Alongside continuing canoe traffic, timber small craft, both flat-bottomed and keeled, were employed on Plains rivers by fur traders, travelers, and explorers. These were sturdier than canoes, but the flat-bottomed boats were only effective going downstream, while keelboats were often grounded.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Native Americans in Virginia never developed sailing ships, but they were using canoes routinely when the Europeans like John Cabot sailed along the North American shoreline at the end of the 15th Century.
Detailed explanation-3: -Its geographic location in the midst of four other culture areas-the Northwest Coast, the Plains, the Great Basin, and California-made the Plateau a crossroads of cultures. An expansive trade network enabled the exchange of goods, ideas, and even people, as slavery was common in the region.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Plateau Indians traditionally inhabited the high plateau region between the Rocky Mountains on the east and the Cascade Range and Canadian Coast Ranges on the west. It includes parts of the present-day U.S. states of Montana, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington and the Canadian province of British Columbia.
