The pre-Colombian history of the New World can be divided into few periods, as we are talking about a very long period from the initial migrations until the contact with the Europeans.
For the first few thousand years after the migrations from Asia to the Americas too place, the people were mostly living a hunter-gatherer life. They were settled in one place, but instead they moved from one place to another in order to be able to get enough food.
Around 2,000 BC we have the first signs of the development of civilizations. The people started to practice agriculture, and that enabled them to settle as they had constant food source. Because of that, they had more time, thus they started to create pottery, later metals. They started to develop cities, construct infrastructure, build empires, get engaged into science.
Some of the civilization that are the most marking are the Mississippian, Mayan, Olmec, Muisca, Aztec, Inca, Nazca. The ones that existed when the Europeans arrived were all destroyed, and only ancient monuments and buildings witness for their existence.
"Saved by an Indian Maiden"
"The story begins when Smith and two English companions are ambushed by Indians. After killing his two companions, the Indians take Smith to their chief, Powhatan. After two months in captivity, Powhatan determines to have the Englishman clubbed to death in a ritual ceremony. According to Smith, the plan is thwarted only when the chief's daughter, Pocahontas (then aged 11 or 12), throws herself between him and his attackers causing her father to relent. Smith published his account of the incident in 1624. It is the only description of the event we have and some historians doubt its authenticity. However, the account permanently etched his name in American folklore."
