Contrary to what so many Americans learn in school, the pre-Columbian Indians were not sparsely settled in a pristine wilderness; rather, there were huge numbers of Indians who actively molded and influenced the land around them. The astonishing Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan had running water and immaculately clean streets, and was larger than any contemporary European city. Mexican cultures created corn in a specialized breeding process that it has been called man’s first feat of genetic engineering. Indeed, Indians were not living lightly on the land but were landscaping and manipulating their world in ways that we are only now beginning to understand. Challenging and surprising, this a transformative new look at a rich and fascinating world we only thought we knew.

We as Americans learn that there were 10 to 15 million people living in the Americas. Not sparse, but enough sparse to not be using 99^ of the land. And that was before diseases(like small pox and the plague) wiped out 90% of those living before first contact.(with the Spanish). We also learned that the Vikings made contact with the Americas earlier(well just the northern part of the east coast of North America). That’s what we learned in the 70’s and 80’s. And that’s what our parents learned too. Side note. Asian’s brought those to Europe hundreds of years earlier and wiped out 2/3 or Europeans. And Columbus thought he was heading to Asia. So the terrible mistake on bringing disease was not intended. As Asian’s had immunity longer than Europeans, and rampant spread would not take place.

Why do all these always start out with “We all learned that the white man coming to America was puppies and unicorns but really…”
Like, who is actually learning that? Back here in reality, we have been being beaten over the head with what is essentially the ‘noble savage’ lesson plan for a generation, which goes something like
‘Everything was puppies and unicorns in the Americas, with everything living in harmony and in the most sustainable, organic way imaginable until the evil white man came and brought disease, ravaged everything they touched and turned everything into a capitalist hellscape!’
This has been the ONLY thing being taught for a very, very long time. Breathe easy, self-hating writers, your preferred propaganda is the one still being used.
