Detailed explanation-1: -There were more than two dozen Native American groups living in the southeast region, loosely defined as spreading from North Carolina to the Gulf of Mexico. These nations included the Chickasaw (CHIK-uh-saw), Choctaw (CHAWK-taw), Creek (CREEK), Cherokee (CHAIR-oh-kee), and Seminole (SEH-min-ohl).
Detailed explanation-2: -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. They used natural resources such as rock, twine, bark, and oyster shell to farm, hunt, and fish.
Detailed explanation-3: -Religion. Like most other Native American culture areas, the Southeast Indian religion was based on animism. Animism is the belief that all living things and natural objects have spirits or souls. Southeast peoples believed that animal spirits were capable of carrying out revenge against humans.
Detailed explanation-4: -"The findings conclusively demonstrate that Native Americans in eastern North America impacted their environment well before the arrival of Europeans. Through their agricultural practices, Native Americans increased soil erosion and sediment yields to the Delaware River basin."
