Native American Displacement LITERACY · 8TH GRADE Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. Contact between Europeans and the peoples already living in the Americas changed both sides, but the costs fell overwhelmingly on Native communities. Diseases carried across the Atlantic, to which Native peoples had no prior exposure, killed a very large share of the population within a few generations. Trade brought new goods and animals, including horses and metal tools, and also drew communities into conflicts over territory and commerce. Over time treaties were signed and repeatedly broken, and many peoples were pushed or forcibly removed from their homelands. Questions: 1 What caused the largest loss of Native life after contact? 2 Name two things trade introduced. 3 What happened to many treaties that were signed? littleactivity.com 8th Grade · Literacy
