Answer: B All the tribes had written records of interactions with other tribes that could be shared with settlers to help them understand tribal ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Southeast Indians were for the most part tightly organized and heavily invested in agriculture. The farms of the most populous tribes—the Choctaw, Creek, Chickasaw, Seminole, and Cherokee—were particularly coveted by outsiders because they were located in prime agricultural areas and were very well developed.Oct 6, 2022
