Tribal clusterings of hunters, fishers and farmers that found artistic expression in the making of items of everyday usecharacterized Suriname's culture before the arrival of the Europeans in the sixteenth and seventeenth (16th-17th) centuries.
Specifically, Suriname's pre-European culture was shaped by settlers and sailors from the Caribbean islands. The first population wave took place along Suriname's Atlantic coastline under the initiative of the Arawak, nomadic hunters and fishers. The second wave resulted in settlement along such important water bodies as the Marowijne River by the Carib, master sailors and Arawak relatives. The third wave occurred in the country's vast rain forest interior.
Agriculture was part of the culture that they brought with them when they arrived from Polynesia. Before Europeans arrived at New Zealand, they grew: kūmara (sweet potato), taro, hue (gourds) and uwhi (yams). After 1820, they readily farmed plants that the Europeans brought.
Life in America before Europeans arrived was described as pretty primitive. These natives relied only on nature and how they could use it.
Some people refer to the time before Europeans arrived in the Americas as Pre-Colonial days. The Europeans went through a period of Renaissance before the Colonists first came to the Americas.
