before the arrival of the europeans, how did mississippian villages protect themselves?
i believe the answer is d- they built palisades and moats
explanation : some of the mississippian villages had defensive structures but not all of the villages had these defensive structures to protect themselves with these had usually came in the forms of poll walls. also known as a palisade. sometimes there was even a ditch outside the wall but not all the time these things helped keep unwelcome things out such as other people and animals from going inside the village . some towns had even featured mounds , a mound is a natural elevation of the earth used for defensive work or a dam.
example of a mound- the slightly elevated ground that a baseball pitcher delivers a ball.
another example of a mound is - a small hill usually made up of rocks and or dirt that you can climb on
but in this case the mound that i'm talking about is what the indians used which was a elevated part of the earth used to defend their villages from people and animals entering.
oh and a moat is a ditch filled with water that surrounds a building or a town
it is also something that can be used as a form of defense but these moats can also be and or act like a sewer.
i also used process of elimination
c wouldn't make sense because they could not use guns or ammunition since they did not lay hands or could get them just yet until the middle of the 1600's during early days of the fur trade.
b would not be correct either because the tribes were competing for resources that were scarce and ending up coming into conflict with each other which resulted in a battle which had also gotten europeans involved called the black hawk war .
a wouldn't be correct either because american indians did not have military forces .
so therefore the answer would be d- they built palisades and moats.
Slavery started in the colonies due to the high labor demands. Specifically in the South, they grew tobacco, cotton, and rice, which all require hard outdoor labor. The Europeans didn’t want to do all the labor, which led to them acquiring slaves. Slavery was viewed as beneficial to them since the slaves weren’t working for money and some slave owners believed that the slaves lived a much better life in America than they would be living if they had stayed in Africa.
