IV. Other information about early cultures
(Directions: Read pp. 28-31 in your text. For letters A-E, write important/interesting facts about the culture groups not already in your notes. You may use information on the Cahokia, but do not move on to “Other Native North Americans.” Write in clear, complete, specific sentences that make sense all by themselves. Example: DO write “The Mogollon style of pottery is still popular among Southwest artists today. DO NOT write “Their style of pottery is still popular.”
