Cactus Hill site has human remains that have been dated to around 20,000 years ago. Given its location in Virginia shows that human beings had reached America earlier than this. This contradicts the theory that postulates humans came to America from Siberia through the modern day Bring Strait. The theory asserts that at the end of the Ice age humans were able to cross to America through the Beringia land bridge and other means such as canoes and rafts around 10,000 years ago.

Archaeologists base their conclusions on artifacts found over a large area. Exact dates cannot always be determined, and scientists don't always agree on the data provided by the evidence. New findings may contradict theories that have already been accepted.

Which event was most significant in shaping the New South era? In 3-5 sentences, provide evidence to support your claim.
WINSTONCH [101]

The most notable New South initiative was the introduction of textile mills in the South. Beginning in the early 1880s, northern capitalists invested in building textile mills in the southern Appalachian foothills of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia, drawn to the region by the fact that they could pay southern mill workers at half the rate of workers in northern mills. Due to these low wages, the mills gave only a modest boost to the southern economies in which they were built.^3

gtnhenbr [62]
Belgium was under German  government from 1940-1944. It was also at about the same time that Germany occupied The Netherlands and Denmark. However, Spain remained neutral during the World War II. Franco, then leader of Spain, supported Germany because he was indebted to the country during the Spanish Civil War for helping them. Spain considered themselves as an ally to Germany however, they did not participate in the war for they thought it would cause more harm than good. Spain remained non-belligerent.
