In its fullest form, the calumet was a long and complex ceremony, but even the more common shorter version involved several days of ritual feasting, gift giving, singing, and dancing. The ceremony climaxed with the presentation of the calumet pipe, which made unrelated peoples one "family" through the working of a fictional kinship. Leaders of different bands adopted each other as father or son. Exchanges of gifts then went on for several days, in the later stages accompanied by exchanges between the men and women of each band, who acquired the same fictive father-son relationship to the other band as that established by their leaders. A leader's calumet relationships were considered permanent, and leaders were expected to maintain a number of calumet relationships with other tribes, bands, and villages. The calumet ceremonies also allowed men and women from different bands to meet and court each other, and often trade bonds between bands were supplemented by matrimonial bonds.

Explain the importance of the early civilizations that settled by the Indus River and Huanghe (Yellow) River.
Katena32 [7]
The Huang He, or Yellow river was very important in Ancient Chinese society. It's called the yellow river because of the huge amount of silt inside of it flowing down. Because of this, the soil around it was very fertile, and this was great for rice farmers. 
The Indus River Valley civilization relied on the Indus River because it provides a source of water, travel, and irrigation for crops, as well as very fertile soil.
