So, how many of you, one of the first words that came to mind when thinking about Native Americans have been portrayed to you in other classes (thinking all the way back to elementary school) was SAVAGES?

Most People in my classes, this is their recollection of previous teachings on Native America. Surprising?

So what if I were to tell you that instead of the handful of Natives here in the Americas, there were actually as many as 120 million of them in 1492? That this population size was equal to that found in Europe at that time? 

What if I told you that these “savages” lived in cities-sophisticated cities, many more sophisticated than Paris, France at that time. Not just the incas or the Mayans either, there were cities all over the Americas. That the Americas are home to the greatest number of pyramids in the world… That the largest pyramid in the world is actually in the Americas not in Egypt, and that one side of the base of this pyramid measures a half mile in length? And that it has just been discovered within the last 10 years because it had literally swallowed up by the Amazon jungle?
