Impact on Culture
Droughts, hurricanes, and other extreme weather events could cause crop failures, famine, and displacement of populations, leading to changes in settlement patterns, social structures, and cultural practices.
Physical features such as mountains, rivers, and forests could affect the movement and interaction of people, leading to the development of different languages, customs, and artistic traditions.
Animals such as the buffalo, llamas, and turkeys were important sources of food, clothing, and tools for many indigenous cultures, and their hunting, breeding, and domestication practices influenced religious beliefs, artistic expressions, and social hierarchies.
Competition for resources such as land, water, and game could lead to conflicts and alliances between different groups, shaping political systems, trade networks, and artistic exchanges.
