    Earliest Period (PAWM) Most tools made from stone Atlatl sling-like instrument for throwing darts Roaming or nomadic hunters followed herds of large game animals Used long wooden spears Lived in groups of 25 to 50 people Remains in Georgia sparse, they moved frequently and left few artifacts in one place

    Archaic Period
    Broken into Early, Middle, and Late Archaic Large game became extinct (ex. Mammoth) Made tools from deer antlers Moved each season to locate best sources for food Horticulture began (growing plants), meant they could move less frequently

    Archaic Period continued

    Woodland Period
    1000 BC to 1000 AD Began forming tribes of several hundred families Developed bow and arrow Lived in villages and built huts Made better pottery by mixing clay with sand Elaborate religious ceremonies began during this period

    Woodland Period continued..


    Buried their dead in burial mounds and buried personal items with them (ex. pottery, pipes, weapons) Burial rituals lead scientists to think that Woodland period Indians believed in life after death.

    Hernando De Soto continued.


    Evidence suggests that maybe half of the Indian population died from flu, smallpox, measles, and whooping cough Expedition considered a failure since no gold was ever found De Soto died along Mississippi River, expedition started near present day Tampa De Sotos men went on to presentday Texas after his death, mission

    Spanish Missions
    1566 Spanish missions established on barrier islands off Georgia Coast Santa Catalina mission on St. Catherines Area was known as Guale (Wally) Mission was to convert the Indians to Catholicism. (voluntary and force) Established the Spanish in the New World
