Abstract:
Native Americans have lived on what is now North Carolina around 12,000 years. The land was much different then--drier, cooler weather and different trees and plants. Porter discusses early contact with European explorers, including de Soto and Pardo. Nearly three dozen tribes have inhabited the state through the years. Today, North Carolina officially recognizes eight tribes.
