The Archaic Period

The Archaic Period
2
I am Arcman, from the Archaic Period. Welcome to
my tribe. My people lived from 8000 B.C. to 1000
A.D., following the Paleo Period, and preceding
the Woodland Period.
3
We traveled in small groups, or clans, which are
a group of people with the same family origin.
4
My people began hunting deer, bear, turkey,
rabbit, and game birds because large game animals
from the Paleo Period began to become extinct.
5
We also hunted fish and gathered nuts, seeds,
fruits, and roots.
6
We created spear points, invented choppers,
drills, and chipping tools made from deer
antlers.
7
We also created a grooved axe. Here are some
pictures.
8
 In the late Archaic period, we settled near
rivers or other natural resources.
9
Like other periods, we invented cooking
technology like pottery and soapstone bowls.

My tribe was magnificent, and they're legacy will
continue on for all to learn about.
