Answer:

The Paleo-Indian period began during the end of Ice Age, it was for the first time when human arrived in America. The people were hunter-gatherers who tracked the animal herds that they depended on for their food and other necessities. During the end of the Ice Age, the glaciers that covered the northern part of the continent began to melt, exposing new land and led to the shift from hunting and gathering to farming. The climate was stabilized, more emphasis was on harvesting and fishing less in hunting and gathering. The population was increasing which led the Paleo-Indian to settle in one place rather than migrate from one place to another as they did before.

Paleo-Indians, Paleoindians or Paleoamericans is a classification term given to the first peoples who entered, and subsequently inhabited, the Americas during the final glacial episodes of the late Pleistocene period. The prefix "paleo-" comes from the Greek adjective palaios (παλαιός), meaning "old" or "ancient". The term "Paleo-Indians" applies specifically to the lithic period in the Western Hemisphere and is distinct from the term "Paleolithic".[1]

Evidence suggests big-animal hunters crossed the Bering Strait from Eurasia into North America over a land and ice bridge (Beringia), that existed between 45,000-12,000 BCE (47,000-14,000 BP).[2] Small isolated groups of hunter-gatherers migrated alongside herds of large herbivores far into Alaska. From 16,500-13,500 BCE (18,500-15,500 BP), ice-free corridors developed along the Pacific coast and valleys of North America.[3] This allowed animals, followed by humans, to migrate south into the interior. The people went on foot or used primitive boats along the coastline. The precise dates and routes of the peopling of the New World are subject to ongoing debate.[4]

Stone tools, particularly projectile points and scrapers, are the primary evidence of the earliest human activity in the Americas. Crafted lithic flaked tools are used by archaeologists and anthropologists to classify cultural periods.[5] Scientific evidence links Indigenous Americans to Asian peoples, specifically eastern Siberian populations. Indigenous peoples of the Americas have been linked to Siberian populations by linguistic factors, the distribution of blood types, and in genetic composition as reflected by molecular data, such as DNA.[6] There is evidence for at least two separate migrations.[7] Between 8000-7000 BCE (10,000-9,000 years BP) the climate stabilized, leading to a rise in population and lithic technology advances, resulting in more sedentary lifestyle.

In the song "what's going on," how does the singer show that society is going through troubled times during the 1960s and 1970s?
velikii [3]
<span>The hit song "What's going on" shows the turmoil faced in American society during the 1960's and 1970's.

This song, released in 1971, references how "war is not the answer." This lyric is a direct reference to America's long time involvement in the Vietnam War.
By the time this song is produced, America had been involved with Vietnamese affairs for almost a decade and have sent thousands of young American men to this country only to die for a cause that many of them did not believe in.
Also, the singer references how <u>" We've got to find a way to bring some loving today."</u> This can refer to the escalated racial tensions between African-Americans and whites during the Civil Rights movement. </span>
