Who were the people of the Americas prior to the arrival of the Europeans? Who built all those mounds? What were the interconnections between the various cultures spread across time and place? We explore these questions with Peter of the Ancient Americas channel ( @AncientAmericas ). From the Old Copper Culture of the Great Lakes to the Tiwanaku of Lake Titicaca, we delve into the subtleties of societal development, genetic histories, and the constant question of what happened to these well-developed societies.
