Migrations among native American tribes were often caused by wars between the tribes, or by climate changes. (The notion that "climate changes" are new phenomenon is incorrect.) After about 1630, when Europeans began to arrive in some numbers, the native populations were forced to retreat to avoid conflict with the more technologically advanced European settlers.

Also, most native American tribes had no resistance to European diseases like smallpox; the Death Rate in some populations was over 50%.
