At the time European settlers arrived in the late 15th and early 16th centuries, it is estimated that there were between 10 to 18 million Native Americans living in what is now the United States. This population was diverse, consisting of hundreds of distinct tribes and languages. However, the exact number is difficult to determine due to the lack of written records and the subsequent dramatic population decline caused by disease, warfare, and displacement following European colonization.
