People descended from Europeans and Native Americans are often referred to as mestizos or métis, depending on the region. Mestizos typically describe individuals in Latin America with mixed European and Indigenous ancestry, while métis is a term more commonly used in Canada to refer to descendants of French settlers and Indigenous peoples. These groups embody a blend of cultural, linguistic, and historical influences from both ancestral backgrounds. Their identities and experiences can vary widely based on location and heritage.

What group of people do anthropologists believe the most of alaska's native people are descended from?
Bercause Native Americans did not have exposure to the diseases the Europeans brought over, they had not built up immunity to them and when outbreaks occured in the Europeans, the Native Americans would get the diseases and die usually more quickly than the europeans and in larger numbers. An example is the small pox virus that was introduced to America and Native Americans by the Europeans.
The Native Americans actually did give the Europeans a few diseases however they are debatable. One of the diseases that Europeans contracted on their way to the New World and at the new world was typhus. Another disease that affected the people coming to the New World was syphilis, now see this is the debatable disease because many believe that It was contracted by Hispaniola but it could still be considered something that was given to the people who came to the New World. Now I do not believe the Europeans got this disease but the Spaniards did.
They may have introduced horses, but that's debatable. They brought over diseases like smallpox, which Europeans were immune but wiped out NA communities. They also brought guns and killed people, and made firearms popular with Native Americans. If it weren't for the Europeans, we'd still have thriving tribes.
The people of the "First Nations" are those who are descended from the Native Americans - those who lived in America before the Europeans arrived.

One result of the loss of Native American lives to disease is that the Native Americans moved farther away from the Europeans. Another result of disease among the Native Americans was their lack of people to fight the Europeans for land.
Christopher Columbus killed many many Native Americans. Europeans also killed many by bringing diseases to america. They (the British and europeans) were sick people, and very greedy, which is why there are very little Native Americans left.
