Detailed explanation-1: -In spring, they hunted, fished and picked berries. In summer, they grew crops (beans, corn, and squash). In fall, they harvested crops and hunted for foods to preserve and keep for the winter. The Native Americans used natural resources in every aspect of their lives.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Supreme Court has upheld off-reservation hunting and fishing rights guaranteed by a treaty, even when these locations are on private land. The Court also has prevented a state from requiring Native Americans to get fishing licenses for activities in areas designated by a treaty.
Detailed explanation-3: -Corn was the most important staple food grown by Native Americans, but corn stalks also provided a pole for beans to climb and the shade from the corn benefited squash that grew under the leaves. The beans, as with all legumes, provided nitrogen for the corn and squash.
