National Geographic – America Before Columbus (VIDEO)
History books traditionally depict the pre-Columbus Americas as a pristine wilderness where small native villages lived in harmony with nature. But scientific evidence tells a very different story: When Columbus stepped ashore in 1492, millions of people were already living there. America wasn’t exactly a “New World,” but a very old one whose inhabitants had built a vast infrastructure of cities, orchards, canals and causeways.
I thought that Queen Isabella was Spanish.
the question is how did columbus know about india. who told him about it.
I didn't see not 1 person with melinated skin… wat happen to the Moors that were the first to come to America, and showed Columbus the route multiple times????
Columbus NEVER CAME HERE ! That nigga only "discovered" Jamaica, Cuba and the Bahamas. That dummy missed the big prize altogether.
God Bless the brave, innovative White European Colonists. We wouldn't even be alive if not for them. I am forever thankful and grateful. I despise those who mock those great men, while living in the country they founded while praising the violent, useless Indians who would have turned a country into a third world dump had they been left to their own devices.Oh, and corn was genetically engineered by white men. To even suggest Indians did is absolutely laughable. Corn back then did not even look like corn as we know it today. Those liars say Indians taught US who to grow corn? HAHAH. Corn grows itself with hardly any help at all, but savage Indians taught Europeans who came from a majestic empire to grow it when they already grew almost every vegetable know at the time. RIGHT? HA! A big fat lie. Europeans farmed domestic animals for food and grew crops as a food source while the Indians grew what?Corn and only corn. The idea is comedy. Europe was so far advanced long before they encountered Indians in America. Indians taught them nothing. They were nothing but violent toward them. Savages they were called. You don't give that moniker to a whole group of people just for shits and giggles. You do it because it was true. Indians didn't have an honorable bone in their bodies. They murdered and slaughtered each other over land and space long before the white man came. Oh ,and Indians can kill buffalo, but the white man can not? Really? Why, because white men only kill for sport while Indians killed for food and pelts. As if the white man didn't have to eat too. Just kill and walk away. Right revisionists? How absurd is that?
isnt our fault that usa dont have a name all the continent is america not that fking country
This was for home work but now I'm enjoying it
Documentaries are bomb
I think we need to be specific when we say Europeans Eastern Europeans never really got involved in this type of stuff so we have to be specific it was Western Europeans they conquered the new world not Eastern Europeans their hands are clean of the blood of the conquered we could see this in the way Europe is set up right now Western Europe is light years ahead of Eastern Europe in wealth and Technology Eastern Europe is slowly catching up but economically it is still behind Western Europe Western Europe is so rich because of the conquest of the new world and the African slave trade these are the pillars of Western Civilization
Compared with European cities (at the time) Cahokia was a small stone age village

Christopher Columbus and most of his crew were Jewish.
They skipped the part where Columbus and his men committed genocide to the Arawaks in the Caribbean. Columbus and his men were douchebag's and we shouldn't celebrate "Columbus" day. Instead people are replacing the holiday with "Native peoples" day. A few fun facts about the Arawaks: They grew corn, beans (including peanuts), squash, peppers, & cassava, they ate fish and sea turtles, slept in hammocks, were mostly naked, wore parrot feathers in their hair (men & women), painted their faces, and built canoes. Of course, the arawaks would engage in violent skirmishes with the more violent "Carib's" too.
That actor can't throw a cast net.
I find it hard to believe the "mississipian's" were growing corn as a monoculture.
Either way, looks like a great documentary. Going to be watching tonight.
How did National Geographics get footage of 1491?
