he thoughts and perspectives of indigenous individuals, especially those who lived during the 15th through 19th centuries, have survived in written form less often than is optimal for the historian. Because such documents are extremely rare, those interested in the Native American past also draw information from traditional arts, folk literature, folklore, archaeology, and other sources.

Native American history is made additionally complex by the diverse geographic and cultural backgrounds of the peoples involved. As one would expect, indigenous American farmers living in stratified societies, such as the Natchez, engaged with Europeans differently than did those who relied on hunting and gathering, such as the Apache. Likewise, Spanish conquistadors were engaged in a fundamentally different kind of colonial enterprise than were their counterparts from France or England.

The sections below consider broad trends in Native American history from the late 15th century to the late 20th century. More-recent events are considered in the final part of this article, Developments in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

North America and Europe circa 1492

The population of Native America

Scholarly estimates of the pre-Columbian population of Northern America have differed by millions of individuals: the lowest credible approximations propose that some 900,000 people lived north of the Rio Grande in 1492, and the highest posit some 18,000,000. In 1910 anthropologist James Mooney undertook the first thorough investigation of the problem. He estimated the precontact population density of each culture area based on historical accounts and carrying capacity, an estimate of the number of people who could be supported by a given form of subsistence. Mooney concluded that approximately 1,115,000 individuals lived in Northern America at the time of Columbian landfall. In 1934 A.L. Kroeber reanalyzed Mooney’s work and estimated 900,000 individuals for the same region and period. In 1966 ethnohistorian Henry Dobyns estimated that there were between 9,800,000 and 12,200,000 people north of the Rio Grande before contact; in 1983 he revised that number upward to 18,000,000 people.

Which factor most promoted the spread of ideas and products from the ancient river valley civilization of Egypt and Mesopotamia
Alinara [238K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The factor that most promoted the spread of ideas and products from the ancient river valley civilization of Egypt and Mesopotamia to the Greek and Roman, was trade relationships.

Trade was of the utmost importance for these civilizations because it gave them the resources to live and prosper (years later, the money or currency). Through trade, not only goods were exchanged but ideas, traditions, culture, belief systems, stories, and language. One of the best examples of this is the Pantheon of gods that started with the Sumerians in Mesopotamia, which is very alike to the Pantheon of gods of Ancient Egypt, the Indus Valley Civilization, the Greek Pantheon, and the Roman Pantheon. All of them, very similar.
