North America was never a "New World." For thousands of years, rich cultures danced across the vast plains, soared up the tallest mountains and prospered on the shores of great lakes. Long before the 16th century, North America was home to up to 30 million people as diverse as the land they lived on.
Explore the world of pre-colonization North America in this traditional territory map. Learn of the languages only few are left to hear, and the ones that are already echoes of the past. Revel in the ingenuity of Indigenous innovations from parkas to snow goggles - and in the beauty of Indigenous artwork. Celebrate the reclamation of land, culture, art, stories and governance as Indigenous communities from the tip of the Arctic to the mouth of Columbia redefine who they are and their place in current North American culture.
This map is ideal for the classroom or for anyone who wishes to gain insight into the forces of colonialism and the history that made North America what it is today. A perfect companion to A World Transformed.
