</span><span>AD 900-1400 - Farming and hunting people from this time in Oklahoma prehistory settled along major rivers and creeks. They planted corn, beans and squash in the fertile flood plains, hunted bison and deer, and fished and gathered mussels from the rivers. Four of these cultures have been defined in western and southern Oklahoma. Since we have no written records from this time, the names of these cultures are unknown. When early Spanish explorers came in the 1500's, they found people who called themselves the Teyas and the Escanjaques. Perhaps the people discussed here also used these names several hundred years earlier. Archeologists believe the Teyas and Escanjaques are descendants of the people discussed on these pages. They are all believed to have been Caddoan speakers.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The methods and roles of leaders and organizations in the movement for independence in the period between 1945 and 1975 were the following.
We are talking about countries such as Cuba, Vietnam, Israel. China, Ghana, and India.
So let's set the example of Cuba. Cuban leader Fidel Castro organized the Revolution in Cuba and deposed President Fulgencio Batista in January 1959, after six years of struggle on the island. The United States had supported president Batista, but the Cuban leader and the Communist forces were backed by the Soviet Union.
So we can say that Castro and other leaders of the time, showed the courage, determination, and character needed to organize his people and start independence movements to grant freedom for their respective countries, as was the case of Mahatma Gandhi in India, or Mao Zedong, in China.
