We can never know when the very small Beothuk tribe became established, since that was in prehistory (meaning that nobody recorded anything at that time). We only know that the Beothuks were the original inhabitants of Newfoundland and the last of them died in 1829; they were certainly the origin of the name "Red Indians" since they made extensive use of a pigment made from natural red ochre, painting their hair, faces, bodies, babies, clothes, houses, weapons, drums, canoes and everything else red.

What was the final result of cultural contact between the europeans and the beothuks?
The final result of cultural contact between Europeans and the Beothuks was largely detrimental to the Beothuk population. The arrival of Europeans led to the introduction of diseases that decimated the Beothuk people, as well as the loss of their traditional hunting and fishing grounds due to European colonization and resource exploitation. By the early 19th century, the Beothuk were effectively pushed to extinction, with the last known member, Shanawdithit, dying in 1829. This tragic outcome reflects the broader impacts of European colonization on Indigenous populations in North America.
What tools did they use to build a house?
to build their homes long ago, the Beothuks would use spears in winter to catch animal skins for the outer layer and they would also use knives to de-skin the animals. In the summer they would just use knives to cut the materials. :) Thanks
