PERIOD 1: 1491–1607
Instructions: Read and selectively highlight each sentence. Define each term. Be prepared to write a summary
statement for each sentence using the accompanying terms.
Overview: On a North American continent controlled by American Indians, contact among the peoples of
Europe, the Americas, and West Africa created a new world.
Key Concept 1.1: Before the arrival of Europeans, native populations in North America developed a wide
variety of social, political, and economic structures based in part on interactions with the environment and
each other.
1. As settlers migrated and settled across the vast expanse of North America over time, they
developed quite different and increasingly complex societies by adapting to and transforming their
diverse environments.
A. Economic Development and Social Diversification Among Native Societies The spread of maize cultivation from present-day Mexico northward into the American
Southwest and beyond supported economic development and social diversification among
societies in these areas; a mix of foraging and hunting did the same for societies in the Northwest
and areas of California.
1.Pueblo
2.three sisters farming
3. Chinook
B. Mobile Lifestyles in Native Societies Societies responded to the lack of natural resources in the Great Basin and the western Great
Plains by developing largely mobile lifestyles.
C. Native Societies in the Northeast and Atlantic Seaboard In the Northeast and along the Atlantic Seaboard, some societies developed a mixed agricultural
and hunter–gatherer economy that favored the development of permanent villages.
1.Iroquois
2.Algonquian.
3
Key Concept 1.2: European overseas expansion resulted in the Columbian Exchange, a series of interactions
and adaptations among societies across the Atlantic.
1. The arrival of Europeans in the Western Hemisphere in the 15th and 16th centuries triggered
extensive demographic and social changes on both sides of the Atlantic.
A. Spanish and Portuguese Exploration and Conquest Spanish and Portuguese exploration and conquest of the Americas led to widespread deadly
epidemics, the emergence of racially mixed populations, and a caste system defined by an
intermixture among Spanish settlers, Africans, and Native Americans.
1. smallpox
2. Caste system (or casta system)
3. Mestizo
4. Zambo
B. Spanish and Portuguese Slave Trade Spanish and Portuguese traders reached West Africa and partnered with some African groups to
exploit local resources and recruit slave labor for the Americas.
C. Spanish Economics in the New World The introduction of new crops and livestock (cows and horses) by the Spanish had far-reaching
effects on native settlement patterns as well as on economic, social, and political development in the
Western
1. Columbian Exchange
D. In the economies of the Spanish colonies, Indian labor, used in the encomienda system to support
plantation-based agriculture and extract precious metals and other resources, was gradually replaced
by African slavery.
1. encomienda system
2. sugar and silver production in the New World
4
2. European expansion into the Western Hemisphere caused intense social/religious, political,
and economic competition in Europe and the promotion of empire building.
A. European Colonization in the New World European exploration and conquest were fueled by
a desire for new sources of wealth, increased power and status, and converts to Christianity.
1. Christopher Columbus
2.Juan Ponce de Leon
3.St. Augustine,, 1565
4.Sir Walter Raleigh
5.Roanoke, 1586
B. European Economics in the New World
New crops (e.g.corn and potatoes) from the Americas stimulated European population growth,
while new sources of mineral wealth facilitated the European shift from feudalism to capitalism.
C. Developments Making Colonization Possible
Improvements in technology and more organized methods for conducting international trade
helped drive changes to economies in Europe and the Americas.
1. sextant
2. joint-stock companies
Key Concept 1.3: Contacts among American Indians, Africans, and Europeans challenged the worldviews of
each group.
1. European overseas expansion and sustained contacts with Africans and American Indians dramatically
altered European views of social, political, and economic relationships among and between white and
nonwhite peoples.
A. Treatment of Native Americans With little experience dealing with people who were different from themselves, Spanish and Portuguese
explorers poorly understood the native peoples they encountered in the Americas, leading to debates
over how American Indians should be treated and how “civilized” these groups were compared to
European standards.
1. Juan de Sepúlveda
5
2. The Black Legend
3. Bartolomé de Las Casas
B. Beliefs in White Superiority Many Europeans developed a belief in white superiority to justify their subjugation of Africans and
American Indians, using several different rationales.
2. Native peoples and Africans in the Americas strove to maintain their political and cultural autonomy in the
face of European challenges to their independence and core
A. Native American Resistance to European Colonization European attempts to change American Indian beliefs and worldviews on basic social issues such as
religion, gender roles and the family, and the relationship of people with the natural environment led to
American Indian resistance and conflict.
1. Spanish mission system
2. Pueblo
3. Juan de Oñate
4. Acoma Pueblo
5. Popès Rebellion
B. African Culture in the New World In spite of slavery, Africans’ cultural and linguistic adaptations to the Western Hemisphere resulted in
varying degrees of cultural preservation and autonomy.
1. maroon communities in Brazil and the Caribbean
2. mixing of Christianity and traditional African religions
