Geologists believe that the first humans came to America when the Earth’s water froze into glaciers.
As the water froze, the floor of the ocean was revealed. This provided a Land bridge for the people
to walk across into America.
WHERE DID THEY COME FROM?
6Monday, September 21, 15
The Journey From Asia The first people migrated from
Asia to North, Central, and South America during the last
Ice Age.
They reached the Americas thousands of years ago.
This migration took centuries, and people spread out across the Americas as far east as the
Atlantic Ocean and as far south as the tip of South America.
7Monday, September 21, 15
8Monday, September 21, 15
These early people crossed a land bridge from Siberia in northeastern Asia to
present-day Alaska. This land bridge, Beringia, now lies under the
waters of the Bering Strait. These early Americans were nomads, moving
from place to place in search of food. - were skilled hunters. They used every part of
the animal for food, clothing, weapons, and tools.
9Monday, September 21, 15
Primordial Soup Theory
They believe that humans crawled out of this Primordial Soup after they grew legs.
Some people think that the first humansformed from a soup of bacteria , chemicals and
amino acids in a warm pond or ocean.
10Monday, September 21, 15
Creation
Scholars believe they have determined the actual location of the Garden of Eden. Adam & Eve were driven out of the Garden of Eden & angels with flaming swords guarded the Garden, so they could never return.

Hunter-Gatherers
The earliest arrivals to America were nomads. This means they moved around from place to place looking for food.
As time passed, the hunter-gathers learned how to plant
& raise crops.
13Monday, September 21, 15
Neolithic Revolution
Once they could grow food, they developed farms. Someone had to tend to the crops as they grew and be there for the harvest. This caused villages to develop around the farms. Some of the first crops the nomads learned to grow were squash, beans and pumpkins, but their most important crop was maize—another word for corn.
When Farming Began
14Monday, September 21, 15
How Farming Changes things
As the families formed a village, not everyone had to tend to the crops. People began to become skilled in
other areas. Some fashioned arrows. Other became experienced basket
weavers. Several men became expert hunters or fishermen.
15Monday, September 21, 15
Government Begins
As the villages grew filled with many families, there was a new need for order. You can imagine how arguments or situations would develop in their new way of living. Government began to develop to settle these disputes. In North America, this marked the actual beginning of civilization.
16Monday, September 21, 15
Civilization
A highly organized society that has increasing knowledge of trade, government, arts (crafts), science, and most of the time a written language. One of the most interesting civilizations to develop were the Aztecs.
17Monday, September 21, 15
AztecsHad a Grand City Called TENOCHTITLAN
Located in Present-day Mexico City!
We are Going to Do a Deeper Study of the Aztecs Later in This Chapter.
Let’s add to the list of civilizations that developed in North America.
18Monday, September 21, 15
Anasazi
This civilization developed where Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico now meet.
The area where these 4 states meet is called the Four Corners Region.
They farmed in some harsh desert conditions building basins & ditches to collect rainwater. The lived in large multi-story buildings made from adobe and stone.
These homes are called Pueblos.

Inuit & Aleut These civilizations developed around
Alaska. Both groups hunted whales, seals and
polar bears. Engineered the creation of the first
harpoon, kayak and dogsled.They are the only Native Americans
who developed lamps using whale blubber for fuel.
25Monday, September 21, 15
Hohokam
This Civilization developed in Arizona.Developed Irrigation canals which brought water from hundreds of miles away to their cropsBy the 1500s this culture had vanished.
26Monday, September 21, 15
This is a Hohokam Ball Court
27Monday, September 21, 15
These people were descendants of the Anasazi & Hohokam (Lived in the same southwestern area of America)
They continued the farming traditions
Believed in a spirit world
When the boys turned six, they joined a kachina cult, wore masks & danced to summon the kachinas
Kachina means good spirit
Zuni & Hopi Civilizations
28Monday, September 21, 15
29Monday, September 21, 15
They were farmers, but suddenly abandoned the area.
They became nomadic hunters.
Followed the herds of buffalo on foot
Once horses were brought to America by Spain, the wild descendants of those horses were tamed by the people of the Great Plains.
They became expert riders, hunters & warriors.
The Great Plains Civilization
30Monday, September 21, 15
Horses were first
brought to America by Spain. Some of
these horses got away during war or
were left behind
when the Spanish set sail. They
populated the great plains area
untouched by
humans. The Great Plains people tamed
these wild horses.
31Monday, September 21, 15
Horses & the Native Americans
32Monday, September 21, 15
First the Great Plains People Farmed, but stopped for an unknown reason.
They began to follow the herds of buffalo on foot. They only killed what was needed to survive & respected the buffalo.
Their lives were completely dependant on the survival of the buffalo.
33Monday, September 21, 15
Lived in present-day New York
Practiced Slash & Burn Agriculture
Lived in Long Houses
Each group formed a clan
Iroquois Civilization
34Monday, September 21, 15
Iroquois
Iroquois used slash & burn agriculture.They cut down the forests, burned & cleared the land. This made the soil rich in nitrogen from the ashes.
35Monday, September 21, 15
Iroquois
They lived in longhouses.
Longhouses housed 10 families.
Each of these 10 families was a clan.
The clan was headed by the strongest woman of the clan.
She was the Matriarch.
36Monday, September 21, 15
War would break out between all the different
clans within the Iroquois groups.
• Five groups formed an alliance to maintain peace.
• When all Five groups joined together, they were called the Iroquois League.
• The agreement the five groups entered into was called
THE GREAT BINDING LAW.

Middle Ages
• The period from about 500 to
1400 is called the Middle Ages.
• During this time, Europe is in a
mess.
• The entire economy had
collapsed.
56Monday, September 21, 15
During the Middle Ages..
1. Money was no longer used
2. Law & order vanished
3. Roads fell into disrepair
4. Cities just disintegrated
5. People knew nothing about life beyond
their own tiny villages
57Monday, September 21, 15
Feudalism
• After the Middle Ages, since the government had failed, a new political system developed.
• Remember, there is no law & order.
58Monday, September 21, 15
European Swords weighed about 6 to 12 pounds. The user needed 2 hands to fight!
59Monday, September 21, 15
60Monday, September 21, 15
Manorialism described the
economic relationship
between the Nobles & the
peasants.
61Monday, September 21, 15
PEASANTS
• Peasants lived on the estates of the Lords.
• In return for the protection during this
lawless time, the peasants farmed the
Lords’ lands.
• Most of the peasants fell into the category
of SERFS.
• Serfs were bound to the land and the lord.
• Serfs were not considered slaves because
they could not be bought or sold.
62Monday, September 21, 15
The Peasants or Serfs lived in tiny
one room houses with dirt floors.
They slept huddled together to
keep warm. Their main diet
consisted of porridge & bread
• Porridge was
made from dried
peas seasoned
with a piece of
pork fat.
63Monday, September 21, 15
64Monday, September 21, 15
Things Change• Neither the Middle Ages nor Feudalism
lasted forever.
• The religion of Islam began to spread like wildfire!
• Christians wanted to prevent Islam from taking over the world.
• They launched an effort to stop Islam from spreading & spread Christianity.
• This effort is historically known as
The Crusades.
65Monday, September 21, 15
The Crusades• The Crusades were really nine expeditions
inspired by Pope Urban II to defeat Islam.
The threat of Islam was so great the
nobles began to sell their estates, free the
serfs and join The Crusades. They felt it
was their duty to the Christian faith. This
marked the end of Feudalism &
Manorialism.
The Crusades took them to many foreign lands & they brought back many
new ideas & new technologies. A great trade developed with Asia. The problem was that all the things they wanted from Asia could only be
obtained by dealing with the Muslims whose religion was Islam!
66Monday, September 21, 15
To get spices from Asia they would be forced
to do business with the people they were
trying to defeat. This is what caused the desire
to find a new route to reach Asia. They could
cut the Muslims out of the deal.
67Monday, September 21, 15
If they could find a way around the Muslims,
They could get the spices they needed & save some money, too!
Europeans were Christian & did not like giving their money to Muslims
68Monday, September 21, 15
There was no warm water or running water.
People went weeks without bathing.
There was no refrigeration, so meat would rot quickly.
The spices helped to mask the smell and taste of rancid meat. Salt would cure the meat &
• Why did they need spices so bad?
69Monday, September 21, 15
Four Strong States Emerged that
Would Finance Trade & Exploration
At this same time, an
intellectual revolution
began.
It is known as the
Renaissance. It lasted
from about 1350-1600.
• Portugal
• Spain
• England
• France
70Monday, September 21, 15
They needed Ships that wouldn’t get swallowed up by the ocean
This began the age of exploration!Exploration required new technology:
Training in Navigation
Accurate Maps & Tools
71Monday, September 21, 15
The Chinese invention of the compass showed the direction of magnetic north.
72Monday, September 21, 15
The Arabs improved an invention called the astrolabe
The Astrolabe measured the altitude of the sun, moon, planets and stars.
73Monday, September 21, 15
Mapmakers called cartographers were unaware of North & South
AmericaA mapmaker named Ptolemy made many of the inaccurate maps for explorers.
74Monday, September 21, 15
No one knew that tribes of Native Americans were living
In a New World not even recorded on European Maps
75Monday, September 21, 15
We shouldn’t judge Ptolemy too harshly. He could only rely on the stories the men aboard ships brought back to him.
There were no satellites to help Ptolemy recognize North & South America
76Monday, September 21, 15
The Portuguese developed a ship
called the Caravel and they began
to search for a new route to Asia.
The Caravel was designed with:
• new triangular shaped sails instead of all square
• New steering rudder instead of steering oars
• And a shallow hull
77Monday, September 21, 15
People To Remember
Henry the Navigator: a prince from Portugal who
opened a school to train in the areas of geography,
map making, astronomy & shipbuilding.
78Monday, September 21, 15
Portugal Leads The Way
A Portuguese sailor named Bartholomeu Dias sailed to the southern tip of Africa.
Now, the Muslims could be bypassed to get spices from Asia.
79Monday, September 21, 15
The Tip of Africa Passageway Became Known as
The Cape of Good Hope

Columbus Didn’t What?
Christopher Columbus was not the first European to arrive in North America. When he did bump into to America, he was just lost. He didn’t discover America like your first history book might’ve told you.
This accomplishment was really the work of
Leif Ericsson
100Monday, September 21, 15
Leif Ericsson500 years before Columbus, Leif Ericsson discovered America.
He was a Viking from Scandinavia.He and his crew tried to create
colonies, but the Native American were too fierce.
The Vikings were outnumbered & the colonies failed.
101Monday, September 21, 15
This is a statue of
Leif located in Iceland.
It was a gift from the United
States of America

105Monday, September 21, 15
Story of ColumbusThe inaccurate map that Christopher Columbus used was created by Claudius
Ptolemy. While the map did indicate a round world
rather than flat, the distance & size of the earth was recorded much too small.
Ptolemy’s maps never even documented the continents we now call North & South
America.
106Monday, September 21, 15
Before we judge Ptolemy too harshly, we need to remember that he did not have access to any of the tools we use today. He was stepping
into the unknown & recording what he had been told by sailors.
107Monday, September 21, 15
Ptolemy developed a grid system of longitude & latitude lines which we still use today.
Longitude: Lines run north
and south!
Latitude: Lines runEast and West
108Monday, September 21, 15
We already know that Europe found a
trade route to Asia around the southern tip of Africa.
(From Lesson 2)
Columbus wanted to explore a new way to reach Asia. He
begged for financial help & was turned down many times.
109Monday, September 21, 15
Columbus finally convinced Spain’s
King & Queen to finance his exploration!
King FerdinandQueen Isabella
110Monday, September 21, 15
Columbus touched land on an island of the Bahamas. He thought he was in India, so he called the people Indians.
Columbus died still believing he had found a new route to Asia.
He Was Lost!
111Monday, September 21, 15
Many People Argue that Columbus didn’t discover anything!
What do you think?
112Monday, September 21, 15
Spain had sent Columbus to explorePortugal had sent Vespucci to exploreBoth countries wanted a claim in the New WorldThey went to the Pope for help
113Monday, September 21, 15
Portugal & Spain were in a race to see who could claim the most land and win the rights to a new route to Asia. (India)
Both countries went to the Pope to settle their dispute. established : Line of Demarcation This was an imaginary line that ran north & south. This line would
divide the world. Everything which had not been claimed yet to the west of the line would belong to Spain
Everything to the East would belong to
The deal was sealed when the countries signed theTreaty of Tordesillas
Portugal.
Pope Alexander VI

114Monday, September 21, 15
No one recognized the Treaty of Tordesillas except for Spain & Portugal.
Dividing the World Was Not Going to be as easy as Signing a Treaty!
115Monday, September 21, 15
It wasn’t until 1507 that another Italian explorer discovered Columbus had been wrong!
Amerigo Vespucci realized he was in a New World rather than Asia.
The new continents began to be drawn into the maps as cartographers heard the news! The Cartographers began to write the name America on the maps in honor of the man who discovered them.

. Magellan’s chief friend from the island sent help to free
the indentured servant & killed 30 crew members in the process of honoring Magellan’s wishes.
All the deaths of crew members in the Philippines prevented the men from sailing all three ships that were remaining.
129Monday, September 21, 15
