T: They all lived in small groups.
Explanation: Both the Paleo and Archaic Indian cultures were characterized by living in small groups rather than large settlements or civilizations. These small groups allowed for easier mobility and hunting and gathering practices.
T: They survived by hunting and gathering.
Explanation: Both the Paleo and Archaic Indian cultures relied on hunting and gathering as their main means of survival. They did not engage in agriculture or domestication of animals.
T: They used tools.
Explanation: Both the Paleo and Archaic Indian cultures used tools. The Paleo Indians, who lived around 10,000 to 8,000 BCE, used stone tools such as spear points and scrapers. The Archaic Indians, who lived between 8,000 BCE and 1,000 BCE, developed more advanced stone tools like projectile points and knives.
T: They stayed in the same place for long periods of time, creating settlements.
Explanation: False. The Paleo and Archaic Indian cultures were known for being mobile, often following animal migrations and seasonal resources. They did not create permanent settlements or stay in the same place for long periods of time.
