Hopewell Indians were hunter / gatherers. They ate a typical stone-age diet, fish, and meat - berries and plants. In their eating habits, the Hopewell fit between hunter-gatherers and farmers. The Hopewell may have grown some plants, but they were not a full-time farming people. They ate nuts, squash, and the seeds from several plants. Hopewell people also ate wild animals, birds, and fish.
