__History__  The leaders of the Native Americans people said they were created by earth, stars and water. However, DNA says they came from Siberia to what is now Alaska, Canada and US, through a Land Bridge called Beringia, which connected the two continents across what is now the Bering Strait. For about fifteen thousand years ago. These early American Indians were soon spread throughout the US, diversifying into many hundreds of nations and tribes.

The Native Americans are in a way respected the nature, which is very difficult for us to understand. They believed that the earth couldn’t belong to any man, but the man belonged to the earth. Each life was just as important as another. They also believed all things were connected. Many people think the Native Americans were one nation. Remember, America is a whole continent, and it is Native Americans all the way from Alaska and Canada and down to the Andes-mountains. Like the rest of the world the tribes had different history, languages and culture. Some made a living from fishing, other by hunting or farming. The Natives had a wonderful life until the ethnic groups were the victims of the intrusion in their territory of the greediest predator they ever faced; the White Men.
