Question

Which phrase describes the paleo-Indians of prehistoric Arkansas?

Answer 1

The correct answers are:

D. hunted with stone-tipped spears;

B. hunted mastodon and woolly mammoth;

The paleo-Indians are the first people that lived in the Americas. These people were hunter-gatherers, and had relatively sophisticated hunting weapons for that time. They are known as the Clovis people.

In the territory of what is now Arkansas, in the prehistory, it is estimated that only around 100 to 150 people lived. They were migration as the animals they hunted migrated, so they did not built any permanent settlements. They hunted with very sharp, stone-tipped spears, and on their menu, it is thought, that the woolly mammoth and the mastodon were a regular meal.
