Question

The culture of the plains indians changed by:

Answer 1

b: the introduction of horses by Spanish
(Process of elimination: Iriquios were in a different region, there were not major wars with the Aztecs, and there was no formation of a symbiotic govt. with the Spanish- as seen through the many native revolts against the Spanish govt.)

Answer 2

The correct answer is B) the introduction of horses by the Spanish.

The culture of the Plains Indians changed by the introduction of horses by the Spanish.

The Indians in the Americas did not have horses. These animals were brought by the Spanish conquerors. So when the Spanished conquered territories in the Americas, the use horses as they did in Spain. This really benefitted the Indians in many ways. The obvious one, transportation. Horse ride faster than any other known method by the Indians in the Plains. And they could carry more things that a human. Just let's remind that Aztec's servants used to run 500 kilometers from the city of Tenochtitlan(nowadays modern Mexico City) to the port of Veracruz, to bring Emperor Monctezuma fresh fish to eat.
