- kylehotchkiss 2y agoTIL; thanks for sharing!
- drewcoo 2y agoNot so sure about "lots of" corn. That seems like retconning. Yes, they grew corn, quash, and beans. They were also semi-nomadic and hunted. Until they were placed on reservations in Kansas and Nebraska, where they started raising livestock. They weren't really notable for growing corn.
