Has the genocide of Native Americans become so complete that we forget about their existence mere days after Thanksgiving?

- MaxHoppersGhost 5y agoPopulation density of Native Americans was low and their wares were not particularly durable. Good luck finding something.
- ummonk 5y agoStone and ceramic are very durable (the latter tends to break into potsherds, but doesn't rust away as iron does). And population density doesn't need to be particularly high to be able to locate settlements and dig up artifacts.
- s1artibartfast 5y agoThis is simply not true. There are many places where you can go where the impacti of the Native Americans is still very obvious. There are places where you can find hundreds of religious carvings, arrowheads, obsidian artifacts, ect.
