Native American Cultural Regions Overview

Native Americans developed distinct cultural regions across North America, with differences in ways of life depending on location. These included the Eastern Woodlands region, where tribes farmed, fished, and hunted, and the Southwest region, where tribes such as the Hopi and Zuni lived in multi-story pueblos and farmed crops like corn. While lifestyles have changed, Native American cultures were originally shaped by the varied environments and natural resources of the different regions they inhabited across the continent.
