To determine the characteristics of the Caddo culture that demonstrated a need for vast amounts of land, you would need to gather information about their lifestyle and activities. In this case, the correct answer would be:
B. They hunted Bison and raised cattle, hogs, and poultry on farms.
To understand their need for vast land, you can infer that hunting large game like bison and raising various animals on farms would require substantial grazing and hunting grounds. By eliminating the other options:
A. While making and trading intricate pottery might be a part of their culture, it does not necessarily indicate a specific need for vast amounts of land.
C. Working on boats along shores does not directly correlate to a need for vast land.
D. Hunting and gathering, although a common characteristic of many Native American cultures, does not necessarily require a large territory if they are practicing sustainable hunting and gathering methods.
Regarding the Houma's learning to trap animals and fish:
A. The option "European conflict drove them to swampy and marsh land in Southern Louisiana" would be the correct answer. In this case, it suggests that due to European conflicts, the Houma people were forced to move to swampy and marshy lands in Southern Louisiana, which likely prompted them to develop skills in trapping animals and fish as a means of survival.
For the conflict between the French and the Natchez over land:
D. The correct answer indicates that the Natchez invaded the land that the French claimed, which led to the conflict. This answer demonstrates a specific reason for the conflict between the two groups.
When considering the prehistoric group most like the Native American groups when first encountered by Europeans:
B. The correct answer would be "Meso." This refers to the Mesoamerican civilizations such as the Aztecs, Maya, and Inca, who had complex societal structures and advanced agricultural practices—similar in many ways to the Native American groups encountered by the Europeans.
Finally, when analyzing the statement about Native Americans at Poverty Point:
B. The option "Their farms were examples of the first plantations" is not true. The Native Americans at Poverty Point were known for building mounds and trading goods, but they were primarily hunters and gatherers rather than practicing agriculture at the scale of plantations.
