Native American societies

Native American societies are diverse groups with rich histories, cultures, and traditions across North America. They traditionally lived in clans, tribes, or nations, each with unique languages, spiritual beliefs, and social structures. Many relied on hunting, fishing, farming, and gathering for sustenance. They developed sophisticated art, storytelling, and governance systems, often emphasizing community and harmony with nature. Despite historical challenges, including colonization and displacement, Native American communities continue to preserve their cultural identities and contribute significantly to the broader society today.
