Legacy of Freedom: A History of the United States
by Glenn M. Linden Dean C. Brink Richard H. HuntingtonThe history of the earliest people in the Americas begins in the distant past, before written records were kept. In order to discover the ways in which these early people lived, historians must turn to sources other than written records. Much of the prehistory of the Americas--that is, the time before the invention of writing--lies buried beneath thousands of years of human development. As a result, the artifacts and fossils of early people must be unearthed and carefully examined. Archaeologists, anthropologists, and historians can then gradually piece together the life-styles of early people in the Americas.
