Topics--choose one society from below and then choose 3 subjects from the list below the listed peoples to discuss as instructed:
- Anasasi
- Hopewell
- Mississippian

Subjects to discuss after you have selected an ancient people--select three --remember to provide several examples for each of the subjects you discuss in your post:
- Community organization, settlement patterns, and/or governance
- Religion and rituals
- Structures, architecture, or earthworks
- Foodways (what did they eat) and agriculture
- Trade--be specific about the kinds of items traded, with whom and from where items originated
- Reasons for the cultures decline--what do we know about what led to their demise (if known)?
For this discussion, I need to answer this question! But I don't know much about the religion or trade of the Aztecs, which is the group I have chosen to write about.
