To understand this question, let's break it down:

1. Contributions of early cultures in the Eastern or Western Hemispheres: The question is asking you to select two accomplishments, innovations, or practices from ancient civilizations in either the Eastern (e.g., Asia, Africa, Europe) or Western (e.g., Americas) Hemispheres. These contributions can include inventions, social structures, political systems, trade routes, agricultural practices, architecture, or any other significant advancements made by early cultures.

2. How they might have affected the development of New Mexico: Once you have chosen two contributions, you need to explain how these contributions could have influenced the development of New Mexico. This can involve discussing how these ideas, technologies, or practices would have spread or been adopted by the people living in this region, how they would have impacted their way of life, or how they may have influenced subsequent generations or neighboring communities.

To answer this question, you will first need to research and identify two significant contributions from early cultures in either the Eastern or Western Hemispheres. Then, you can explain how these contributions could have influenced the development of New Mexico based on historical context, cultural contact, or other relevant factors.
