Upon their arrival to the New World (the European term for North and South America), the Europeans introduced new items to native peoples. These included horses and cattle, which Christopher Columbus (1451-1506) brought on his first voyage in 1492. Later Europeans brought other livestock-including sheep, pigs, goats, and chickens-and such plants as sugarcane, rice, indigo, wheat, and citrus fruits. Except for indigo, which is used to make blue dye for fabric, these plants provided food crops that are still important today.

∙ 15y agoIf it weren't for Europeans the US would have no culture. This is the mixing bowl of cultural foods, ideals, religious idea's, as we are playing into with this war. Let people be what they are, eat what they want, worship whom they want and do whatever they feel is right. This could be a long drawn out answer, but I'm ending it here. Live and let live!

Why did goal of assimilation of Native Americans have limited success?
Basically because the Native Americans were there first and liked their culture where it was. A number of aspects of European culture like land ownership were immoral according to the religious beliefs of Native Americans of that time period. Also, the settlers were very hostile and tried forcing their culture on others. If they had made inroads, set up schools according to Native American customs and let the kids keep their culture, it would have been different.

What is meant by Americanization of the Indian?
Americanizing a Native American is by definintion a contradictory statement. Being the original inhabitants of the North American Continent i.e the original Americans, they cannot become Americanized through some process. What that statement may really be saying is "what does it mean to Europeanize a Native American". This refers to a process of loss of the Native American's "American" culture and identity through indocrination, re-education, and an environment of European cultures and values. The Native American loses their American identity, and adopts the identiy and culture of the Western Europeans. American today really means the descendents of Western Europeans, not Native Americans.
